I had a thoroughly enjoyable day. The course was set for all levels and the trainer was patient, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. Everyone was made to feel comfortable, irrespective of experience or equipment. The practical help during the day was invaluable and I learned and used functions on my camera that I had not fully appreciated before the course. I only had one day to sample the training but will consider additional days in the future.

I learnt a lot on how to take great pictures of waterfalls, which was my primary objective for attending the course. I also learnt about the capabilities of my camera (Nikon D850) and the uses of ND filters. Neil was a great and helpful trainer. I would have liked to take more shots of waterfalls but the weather wasn't cooperative in the latter part of the day. Overall the course was excellent.

I had been looking forward to this event for some time and did not leave disappointed. The session started in early twilight and finished in darkness providing a huge range of photo opportunities and extremes. The available support of the friendly and approachable Neil & Ricci (Nikon) was appreciated. They also had Nikon kit available for use during the session. Last, but not least, was the fact that we had access to photograph the Lancaster in a closed, private session was just fantastic.

What a completely fantastic experience this night was! To have close up time with a Lancaster bomber was amazing, very knowledgable and friendly staff as well, I learnt a lot! Thank you!
REVIEWER: Carl B.
This evening gave the unique opportunity to a stunning subject, the Lancaster bomber. The staging of the different shots were well thought out and the small size of the group provided excellent access for all to get great shots. Neil and Ricci were on hand throughout for advice and when dials were inadvertently altered in the dark.

This was an amazing workshop, set in the aviation centre at East Kirkby you felt history come to life. Standing in front of the Lancaster Bomber and having the opportunity to take photographs up close and all around the aircraft, was absolutely fantastic and I have finally ticked off one of the shots from my bucket list - thanks team Nikon - you rock!
REVIEWER: Neil H.
A truly excellent evening – extremely well organised and with a wide range of set-ups used to maximise the photo opportunities available.
The actors in period costume really helped create some memorable scenes, but the star was clearly Just Jane herself – magnificent yet menacing… and the sound from those engines!!
So a great success, with some wonderfully evocative images captured.
Thanks once again, Nikon School.

It was a great opportunity to meet, speak, and learn from Neil Freeman. I was packed full of questions and each question was immediately addressed. I really felt that Neil was there for us, nothing was 'off base.' He was happy to share his vast experience with us, and not afraid to give us the practical short cuts we need on location where there will rarely be time to think for more than a moment about camera settings. I shall follow up on his advice for winning work.
REVIEWER: Peter E.
Really loved the day. Found Neil's expertise really great, he was able to deliver the main technical aspects of the course with great skill, and more than that he spent the whole day answering all our questions. Neil's practical experience was so invaluable to be able to tap into.
REVIEWER: Rob H.
The location, facilities, Nikon staff and Hawk Conservancy Trust staff were all excellent. As keen bird photographers new to DSLRs, we got exactly what we were looking for from the day. We got to learn the more in depth settings of the camera, as suitable for the subjects, and as a bonus got to try out different kit we were thinking of buying. We even came away with some half decent photos.
