Evening Light Close-Up Photography Workshop

Flowers are vibrant, elegant, and exquisitely beautiful things, but photographing them is far from easy. Likewise the fantastic yet so often fleeting sightings of insects that pose amongst them. To capture the beauty and character of plants and their visitors requires good camera handling skills, technique and a creative eye.

Join specialist Ross Hoddinott for a masterclass in flower photography and close-up technique. Ross is an experienced tutor, known for his friendly and informal style of teaching. During the day, he will offer expert guidance on camera settings, focusing and depth of field, while also highlighting the importance of subject selection, background choice, and shooting angle.

This workshop is aimed at photographers of all levels, but a digital SLR or mirrorless system (together with close-up attachment and tripod) is recommended to get the most from your time with Ross. During the workshop, emphasis will be placed on creativity and the influence of light, which is why this course extends into the evening. This is a unique opportunity to enjoy the garden and take photographs at Rosemoor after day visitors have left.
