This workshop is a unique opportunity to photograph
the wonderful Peak District in Autumn. The Peak District is an area of
great natural beauty made up of rocky outcrops, peat covered
moorland and wonderful limestone dales. The Varied landscape and
changeable weather and light make this area a dream to photograph
for the landscape photographer.
The date for this workshop has been carefully
chosen to capture the beauty of this landscape at autumn. Because of
the time of year and the large number of fantastic woodland
waterfalls we will have plenty of locations to photograph even if
the weather is dull of any of the days.
This workshop includes accommodation staying in
single occupancy rooms in a self catering wooden lodge in the
Peak District.
The workshops are aimed at
photographers with an interest in landscape photography however
due to the nature of our location there may also be a chance to
shoot a range of wildlife subjects found in the area.
The workshops cater for all levels of experience
from photographers with little or no experience to advanced
photographers. By ensuring that group numbers are kept low ensures
that there is lots of available time and tuition for individuals
and the chance to be part of a small friendly group with other
like minded photographers.
Breakfast & snacks are included in the price,
lunchtime and evening meals including drinks are at guest’s own
cost, a typical evening or lunchtime meal for our planned
locations usually costs under £15 & will be at a number of local
pubs or restaurants for the various planned locations.

Three Day Workshop Plan
FRIDAY AFTERNOON
On day one we will begin by heading out to Padley Gorge
for a spot of afternoon photography capturing the wonderful
autumn colours and the unique peat stained waterfalls.
SATURDAY
On Saturday morning we will head up onto Mam Tor where we will be
able to capture great views of the Hope Valley.
Mam Tor is a great place for a morning shoot as there are so many
different subjects and viewpoints in one location.
The Autumn colours on Stanage Edge look fantastic at this time
of the year especially when illuminated by the setting sun.
SUNDAY

On Sunday morning we will begin shooting a selection of dawn
images from locations such as Higger Tor, Carhead Rocks and the
Stanage Edge millstones.
After breakfast on the Sunday we will head over to one of my
favourite spots in the Peak District, Black Clough. Black clough
is a little known spot that looks fantastic with the Autumn
colours and like Padley Gorge the water is stained a fantastic
brown colour from the peat through which it travels.
In the afternoon we will head to the Upper Derwent Valley to
capture some of the great autumn colour.
MONDAY MORNING
On Monday morning we will photograph Curbar Edge at dawn. This
is a great location to capture the mist that often forms in the
valley below. Once we have finished at Curbar the workshop will
end.
