Description


SEAL PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP

Wildlife photography is a wonderful and relaxing hobby or career, especially when you have subjects like the Grey Seal to photograph.

These magnificent animals come on to land to breed in the winter months in the UK which gives the perfect opportunity for them to be photographed and watched.

You will see interactions such as mothers feeding their new pups, Bull Seals breeding with Cows and Bulls fighting to see who gets to breed. It is a fantastic time that is not to be missed for any wildlife photographer.

We do all this while keeping the seals best interests in mind. We will NOT get too close to the animals we will be always watching our surroundings and for signs of distress.

On this workshop we will be focusing on all the techniques that is required for photographing wildlife, including Shutter Speed, Aperture priority, composition, how to deal with camera shake.

We will also cover how to get the best photograph without disturbing the subject, how to approach the seals and to spot signs of distress in the animal.

The equipment that is best suited for the type of photography that we are doing and techniques to get the perfect shot which include camera-shake and how to get sharp pictures.

       

This course is conducted in Norfolk which is a real hot spot in December for Grey Seals because it is in the middle of the pupping season. Plus with the added fact that it is winter when the sun is low in the sky all day you can get some wonderful atmospheric shots.

With the Seals been wild animals in their natural habitat the course is limited to two people per day as not to stress out any of the animals.

This Seal photography workshop takes place in Norfolk Not far from Great Yarmouth.

We will be meeting at Horsey Wind pump, Great Yarmouth NR29 4EF car park (Time to be arranged)

Their will be a fair amount of walking involved so you will need a good level of fitness to do this course.

With only taking two people on this course it will leave plenty 1-2-1 time to spend with each student and also their is less chance of disturbing the Seals.

Because everyone has different levels of ability so we can concentrate on your abilities and get you those pictures that you always wanted.

The Norfolk coast is wild and rugged which makes a fantastic backdrop when photographing Grey seals. We will look to capture a wide variety of pictures from intimate moments between mother and pup to action shots, along with lots of portraits of these amazing animals .
