Learn how to take control of your camera and get off the auto mode on this one day beginners photography course. It assumes no previous knowledge of photography and is suitable for all types of digital stills cameras. It is a mixture of classroom-based teaching and practice outdoors, and is being held in Tansley Village Hall near Matlock in Derbyshire. The course is limited to a maximum of only 6 photographers, and places cost £99.00 each. Only 2 places still available.
This intermediate level course will include some of the wonderful photographic subjects around Stanton Moor, between Bakewell and Matlock in the Peak District. We will explore some former gritstone quarries which still have reminders of their former industrial past, and other subjects will include stone circles and impressive natural rock outcrops. There will also be an almost full moon rising during the afternoon! The course will begin shortly after sunrise, and we may be lucky enough to get a temperature inversion as we did on last year’s course. The course will finish shortly after sunset. It is limited to a maximum of only 4 photographers, and places cost £99.00 each. Only 2 places still available.

This intermediate level course is being held in one of the Peak District‘s most beautiful valleys. 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. The course is limited to a maximum of only 4 photographers, and places cost £99.00 each. Places available.

This intermediate level course will explore some of the wonderful photographic subjects around Stanton Moor, between Bakewell and Matlock in the Peak District. Apart from the impressive disused quarry faces, there are abandoned millstones, a well-preserved blacksmith’s forge and a large stone cutting shed. There are also two stone circles (including the famous Nine Ladies) and other Bronze Age remains. This area is also a great location for sunsets, and as the course will run until after sunset at 5.30pm, we will be able to take photos during golden hour as well as at sunset if the conditions permit. The course is limited to a maximum of only 4 photographers, and places cost £99.00 each. Places available.

This intermediate level landscape photography course will be held in the area around Fox House (on to the border between Sheffield and Derbyshire). This part of the Peak District offers a wonderful range of subjects – including waterfalls, colourful oak and birch woodlands, old millstone quarries, and natural gritstone outcrops. Since the sun will set just before the course finishes, we should also be able to get some great shots in golden hour light and at sunset if conditions permit. The course is limited to a maximum of only 4 photographers, and places cost £99.00 each. Places available.
This intermediate level landscape photography course has been timed to capture some of the Peak District‘s woodlands in springtime when they are looking their finest. We will spend the first part of the day in woods not far from Matlock photographing bluebells and other spring wild flowers, as well as the impressive ruined steam engine house of a former lead mine. After a pub lunch, we will visit another nearby location – which could be a stone circle, industrial remains in one of the disused quarries, or the famous Cork Stone. The course is limited to a maximum of only 4 photographers, and places cost £99.00 each. Places available.
