Snowdonia (Eryri) and Anglesey: Small Group Workshop

Mountains, lakes, slate quarries, castles, waterfalls and a rugged coastline, amongst photographers in particular, Eryri (Snowdonia) and Anglesey require very little by way of an introduction and during this 4-night Snowdonia and Anglesey landscape photography workshop, we will visit some of the region’s most well-known locations including Devil’s Kitchen and Penmon Point as well as explore lesser-known ones, too. Aside from capturing awe-inspiring mountain and coastal vistas, you will be encouraged to seek out details – both large and small - that most would either not recognise its potential or would ordinarily pass by. A multitude of techniques and considerations will be discussed from filtration, composition, aspect ratios and black and white, to the thought process that lies behind the making of a meaningful photograph. With still relatively mild temperatures, early October is a lovely time to visit Snowdonia and Anglesey when conditions are quite stable and when the landscape is showing clear signs of autumn. While in Snowdonia and Anglesey, we will endeavour to capture 2 sunrises and 2 sunsets in each, and with potentially warm days and cool nights, there is the distinct possibility of mist in the valleys and on the lakes, which could make for some beautiful photos. 

The workshop begins on the 7th at a cafe-meet-up close to our first sunset location and concludes following a sunrise shoot and breakfast on the 11th. 

TIMING
With coastal photography, timing is of utmost importance. Coincide sunrise with high tide, for example, and you won't have a beach to work on. With this in mind, dates have been specifically chosen so that we can access and photograph the remarkable Llanddwyn Island on Anglesey through to sunset without fear of getting cut off!   

POST-WORKSHOP CRITIQUE & EDIT TUTORIAL
Following the workshop and upon receiving three RAW files from everyone, a recorded critique and Lightroom/Photoshop editing tutorial will be provided, and since there'll be no need for you to be present during this process, you need not worry about setting any time aside. This will not only give you valuable feedback and a chance to see others' work but it will, I hope, also provide ideas for processing your own photos.
