This workshop begins as the sunrises over Cobbolds Point, taking in one or two other locations in the area, before ending around lunchtime. Naturally, the start time of the workshop will be timed to make the most of the rising sun, along with a favourable tide. From there we will venture to one or two other nearby locations, almost certainly taking in Landguard Point. All workshop dates available are selected for the most of optimum tide. ​A brief meet & greet at the starting point will allow us to get to know each other and for me to see what photographic gear you have brought with you.   The original sea defences were built by Felix Thornley Cobbold and lasted for over 100 years, but have been replaced in recent times, and the impressive structure makes a great subject for long exposure photography. Landguard Point is a headland located at the entrance to the Port of Felixstowe and is home to the Landguard Fort, which dates back to the 16th century. The fort is now a museum and is open to the public. The point is also a popular spot for birdwatching, as it is located on the North Sea flyway, a migratory route for birds. In addition to the fort, there is also the conservation area to explore, with its WWII defences scattered about. We will spend some time photographing the area, before moving on to Cobbold Point, with its photogenic sea defences. I use a very laid back teaching style, (there won't be any exam question, I promise!), and being a small group, I am able to ensure I spend as much time with all attendees, to help them get the most from their camera and equipment. You will learn all about reading and setting exposure, composition & framing, as well as how to get the most from the camera settings, such as achieving the best focus and Depth of Field for a scene.  If you haven't yet mastered Fully Manual control of your camera, I am sure you will be adept at it by the end of the workshop. Following the workshop, you will be given access to some freebies for you to download and keep, including my; "Landscape Photography Essentials", which will help solidify the new skills you have learnt. I look forward to seeing you there :)
