This workshop offers a mix of landscape, waterfall, woodland and intimate landscape photography. Basically, everything is on the table on this very varied day. The workshop starts with a morning session at the stunning Blea Tarn high up in the southern fells affording views across to the Langdale Pikes. Here we will spend time exploring the shoreline, problem solving by seeking out clean compositions among the many boulders that litter the water’s edge. The Pikes are often bathed in glorious morning light at this time of year and so it’s one of the best places to start the day. From there we head to the River Brathay to shoot a variety of subjects along an ancient wooded watercourse. After lunch at nearby Ambleside we head to Tarn Hows where we will spend the rest of the day photographing waterfalls/cascades and areas around the lakeside where there are often stunning reflections to be captured.
