Felixstowe Sunset Photography Workshop now available

Updated: Feb 28, 2023

This workshop begins in the afternoon and ends shortly after sunset. Naturally, the start time of the workshop will be timed to give us time to explore one or two areas of photographic interest before making sure we are at the final location ready to make the most of the golden hour around sunset. The dates available are all selected for the most of optimum tide.

A brief meet & greet at the Cliff Road car park will allow us to get to know each other and for me to see what photographic gear you have brought with you.


After spending some time around the colourful beach huts and groynes, we will move southwards along the coast, taking in Cobbold's Point and finishing up at Languard Point for the sunset.

​

Landguard Point is a headland located at the entrance to the Port of Felixstowe and is home to the Landguard Fort, which dates back to the 16th century. The fort is now a museum and is open to the public. The point is also a popular spot for birdwatching, as it is located on the North Sea flyway, a migratory route for birds. In addition to the fort, there is also the conservation area to explore, with its WWII defences scattered about. We will spend some time photographing the area, before moving on to Cobbold Point, with its photogenic sea defences.

I use a very laid back teaching style, (there won't be any exam question, I promise!), and being a small group, I am able to ensure I spend as much time with all attendees, to help them get the most from their camera and equipment.


You will learn all about reading and setting exposure, composition & framing, as well as how to get the most from the camera settings, such as achieving the best focus and Depth of Field for a scene. If you haven't yet mastered Fully Manual control of your camera, I am sure you will be adept at it by the end of the workshop.

​

Following your workshop date, you will be sent a link to allow you to grab a copy of my; "From [AUTO] to [M]anual", beginners guide to understanding your camera, and you will be offered the chance to get me to edit your favourite image from the day. I can also arrange for your image to be printed should you wish.
