    District, and learn some skills and techniques that will help you
    to get your camera off that Auto setting and start taking some
    really striking photos!

    The photography workshop is taught by a professional photographer
    with years of experience, who knows just how to help you make the
    jump from simply ‘point and shoot’ photography to more carefully
    considered, aesthetically pleasing and technically interesting
    photographs. Your full day photograhy workshop will begin with an
    introduction and briefing of the day’s itinerary. The firs thing
    you will discuss is your digital SLR camera – it’s settings and
    functions, and how to adjust them. You will then have a lesson on
    aperture, shutter speed and ISO, discussing the effects of these on
    a photograph. You will learn how to overcome difficult light
    situations to capture a tricky shot, as well as how to use the
    built-in flash to best effect. You will finally move on to talk
    about the aesthetics of a great photo; what the rules are, and when
    or why you could break them. You will learn about composition and
    framing to create interesting and beautiful shots, before heading
    off into the charming Peak District town of Bakewell to put theory
    into practice! Take photos of the gorgeous countryside and pretty
    town, using all the new tips and tricks you learned during the
    first part of the photography lesson. You can have your photos
    appraised at the end of the day if you wish, but for those of you
    who feel a little self-conscious, there is no obligation! You will
    receive a comprehensive booklet to take with you that explains
    everything you learned during the day, so even if you forget
    something, you can easily go back and brush up.

    This Peak District photography workshop is a wonderful full day
    lesson, with a choice of delicious meat or vegetarian pie included
    for your lunch. It makes a great gift for creative people and
    budding photographers in Derbyshire, helping them improve their
    photography skills and capture special moments with just a little
    extra flair!
