Join us for a full day exploring and photographing the stunning scenery around Stainforth in the Yorkshire Dales. Stainforth in the Yorkshire Dales provides an amazing backdrop with sweeping landscapes, limestone pavements, lone trees and waterfalls. On the day you will learn the best camera settings, tips and techniques for photographing landscapes and how to use ND, Grads and Polarising filters to best effect. Weather permitting there will be lots of time shooting all sorts of different landscape locations so you can practice your newly learned skills.
No matter what your interest or level in photography there is something for everyone in the Yorkshire dales and this is a great opportunity to explore the national park and learn how to shoot great landscape images with Nikon School. We will guide you through the correct camera settings to make the most of the beautiful surroundings; covering techniques such as long exposures, using filters, image composition and focusing techniques to ensure you get pin sharp images. The day will be primarily spent around Stainforth (see full address at the bottom of this page), however, we may explore further into the dales depending on the light and weather conditions.
Fitness: Most of the locations involve relatively short walks, but some of the locations will require a walk along uneven tracks and up steep paths. Because of this, a moderate to high level of fitness will be required on this course. Depending on the weather and light we aim to visit several locations that have been specifically chosen for spectacular photography. Please note that in the event of severe weather the locations may have to be altered at the last minute.
If you would like to borrow any camera and lenses for this course please get in contact with us at [email protected] with your request and we will do our best to bring it along. Please note we will need a minimum of one weeks notice for any requests
It is suggested that you bring a packed lunch, snacks and drinks on this course as there are not that many cafes or restaurants nearby. You can travel to Settle for lunch if you want, however, that means you may miss some photographic opportunities
PLEASE NOTE: Google Maps / Sat Nav often does not use the correct postcode for the car park. The What 3 Words location is: ///diagram.alarming.corporate
Or you could try using the postcode of BD24 9PW which is the EV charging point in the car park.
This was my second experience day with Nikon and Neil, the weather proved less than ideal but Neil had this covered, making use of his local knowledge he gave us the opportunities to learn and develop our skills in a variety of locations making full use of the breakings in the rain. Regardless of your current skill level I can highly recommend these courses.
