Peak District Winter Landscapes Photography Course

Saturday December 14th – 9.00 am to 4.00 pm. Only 2 places still available.

This course will be limited to just 4 photographers, with places costing £99.00 each. Please contact us to request a booking form, or if you need any further information about this course.

This intermediate level course will explore some of the wonderful photographic subjects around Stanton Moor, between Bakewell and Matlock in the Peak District. We will spend the first part of the day in one of the former sandstone quarries which surround the moor. Stanton Moor has been prized for its fine grained stone for centuries (the paving for Trafalgar Square came from here), and the quarry we will visit still retains plenty of interesting features from its industrial past – though they have now been softened and partly reclaimed by nature.

Winter Landscapes in the White Peak

Saturday January 25th – 10.00am to 4.30pm. £99.00 per person. Places available.

This course is being held in one of the Peak District‘s most beautiful valleys, which is also a National Nature Reserve. Lathkill Dale is beautiful at any time of year, but in winter the bare trees and abundant water give it a special stark quality which can produce some exceptionally beautiful images. The course will run until sunset, so it will be a great chance to experience taking pictures in the low light conditions using long exposures.

This intermediate level course will be limited to just four photographers – so everyone will receive plenty of individual attention and get their questions answered.

Please contact us if you would like us to send you a booking form.

This course will be limited to just 4 photographers, with places costing £99.00 each. Please contact us to request a booking form, or if you need any further information about this course.

This intermediate level course will explore some of the wonderful photographic subjects around Stanton Moor, between Bakewell and Matlock in the Peak District. The first part of the day will be spent photographing industrial remains in one of the former sandstone quarries which surround the moor. Stanton Moor has long been prized for its fine grained stone for centuries (the paving for Trafalgar Square came from here), and the quarry we will visit still retains plenty of interesting features from its industrial past – though they have now been softened and partly reclaimed by nature.

Apart from the impressive quarry faces, there are abandoned millstones, a well-preserved blacksmith’s forge and a large stone cutting shed (see below) – all of which make for some great subject matter.
