Details
This experience is ideal for those wanting to learn more about their cameras and for gaining a good understanding of the principles and technique involved in wildlife photography and bird watching. Shutter speed, ISO settings, aperture, depth of field, angles, composition and approaching subjects are all covered. This experience is also ideal for more experienced photographers looking to find and photograph new species and learn about fieldcraft and behaviours of these different species.

Sometimes the weather can be challenging on the Yorkshire Coast as we  look at these elements, so we work on how to adjust the camera settings to compensate.
