Photo WALKshop: Blue Hour
Capture the special blue hour light in this photography course in Bath
There is extraordinary blue light that appears at dawn and dusk, known as the blue hour. Do you want to know how to use it for amazing atmospheric cityscapes? Then this photography course in Bath is for you.
If you tried taking pictures at this time maybe your pictures were too dark, not sharp, had insufficient contrast, overblown street lights etc.? Maybe you don’t know when the best light is, so it’s gone before you start?
Come with me on a photography WALKshop in Bath, a World Heritage site, to overcome all of those problems. We will have fun creating cityscapes using the amazing light at the blue hour in the late afternoon and evening.

Your photographer / tutor
I originally come from a science and teaching background. Moving on to being a specialised landscape photographer was the best decision ever. I have subsequently won a few prizes at Bristol Photographic Society and exhibited my photos in several galleries.
Living in Bristol I know the photogenic places in Bath very well including some hidden gems.
Experienced in Canon and Nikon as well as other camera brands I will show you the settings for awesome cityscapes. But more important than the settings is the perspective. You can expect lots of tips and tricks from me as a profi landscape photographer on how to find the best perspective.
My students praise me for being practical and giving explanations without unnecessary technical terms.
