Make
a photography course a part of your holiday in the outstanding
Forest of Dean and Wye Valley region.
Since 2004, award-winning
wildlife photographer David J Slater has been running ONE-to-ONE or ONE-to-TWO practical workshops for
photographers wishing to improve their wildlife photography.
Anyone
interested in having a day out in the field with me, to get
advice on equipment before a purchase, to learn skills with a visit to a wildlife park or nature reserve,
then please get in touch.
Every trip will be tailored to suit, be it general photography or more specialized.
An
easy going approach that packs a lot of information in is my
preferred style. I make photography as simplified as
possible for you. I will dispel many myths about how good
photographers get their images, and get you to do the
same. Knowledge learnt can be easily transferred to other
photographic disciplines.
Dates
are by mutual arrangement, with lots of flexibility if climate
change ever gets too troublesome!
Only on a personalized workshop
can you ask as many questions as you like without embarrassment,
and get sound practical advice on seeing and perfecting the
final image. Group workshops can never achieve the same.
I
have experience catering for young people, with a parent
attending for free if they wish. We will visit either
Bristol Zoo or Slimbridge.
Cameras, lenses,
tripods, can all be loaned. You will get to use
professional lenses, including the Canon 600mm F4, and take your pictures
on a Canon digital SLR camera. I will also give you constructive critique of
your pictures (past and present), with
comparison of any I took on the trip.
Prices are £140 per
day based around the Forest of Dean
and/or Slimbridge. Two people sharing will cost £200.
Personalized tuition includes understanding your camera, flash,
macro, exposure, digital processing, etc. with field work aimed at your choice of
birds, plants, insects or everything (if available). Watch how I do it
then have a go yourself.
Overnight accommodation can be
arranged for you. Discounts for longer stays.

Please
e-mail
me now
to find out more or if
you want to book a place (give me your preferred dates).
Please make sure you put "workshop request" in the
subject line (or it will be deleted as junk mail).
"There
is no substitute in photography for getting out there and
practicing".
