FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP
Why should I choose a Digital Dawn workshop?
Perhaps the main reason is that our group size is never more than five photographers, whereas some photographic courses and workshops can have 10 or more. This smaller group size means you receive a larger amount of personal in-depth tuition out on location. It also means we can visit more varied locations and have more elbow room when we get there. Also, course leader Garry Brannigan will not be using your time making his own images. All his time out on location is spent alongside photographers giving them one-to-one tuition. It's a combination that has proved successful and a large proportion of photographers return for additional courses at a different location. Some are now on their third or fourth course.
What type of camera and equipment do I need for this one-day workshop?
You will need a digital SLR camera to get the most out of this workshop. After your camera and lenses, the most essential item is a tripod. It is heavy to carry around, but landscape photography often involves freeing yourself from holding the camera and using a sturdy tripod will have a direct effect on both the technical and creative quality of your photographs. Also, it is not possible for the course leader to help with your compositions if the camera is hand-held. Please contact us if you would like advice on buying a tripod before coming on the workshop.
What level of experience do I need for this workshop?
You may be completely new to using a digital SLR camera or making the switch from film to digital. Either way, the One-day Introduction to Digital Landscape Photography Workshop is ideal for anyone who is keen to learn about landscape photography and to know how their digital camera works away from the automatic settings. Because of the small group size you'll enjoy individual attention and receive the tuition at a level that is right for you.
How fit do I need to be?
This Yorkshire Dales workshop involves a small amount of walking away from the road, some across uneven ground, but none of it is strenuous.

FEEDBACK FROM PHOTOGRAPHERS
Thank you for a very enjoyable workshop. It was a revelation to learn eventually how to use and make the most of my camera.
SIMON FOSTER, One-day Workshop September 2007
Thank you for a wonderful course. I felt it was beautifully balanced...just the right amount of technical & classroom tuition, balanced with plenty of time out on location putting it into practice. Not only did I learn a hell of a lot, I'm also chuffed to bits about making the transition to RAW.
TONY CUTHBERTSON, One-day Workshop July 2007
I would just like to say how much I enjoyed the workshop, everything you explained was very clear and concise. I was very nervous at the thought of being baffled by lots of technical jargon but you soon put my mind at rest with your friendly and informal approach. You have changed my whole attitude to photography and I will certainly look forward to joining you on another of your excellent courses.
KEN CAVE, One-day Workshop May 2007
Many thanks for such and enjoyable and informative course. I feel so much more confident now about getting the exposure and depth of field right and much more prepared to look around me for less obvious, but ultimately more rewarding images. I do a lot of training myself and I have nothing but praise for your techniques and approach to the day. I will recommend you highly to any of my friends interested in a similar course.
