Description
Proposed Workshop Itinerary – Subject to Conditions
Northumberland Coast (Seascapes & Dramatic Castles)
Morning
- Bamburgh Castle – An iconic seascape location set above a sweeping sandy beach, offering excellent opportunities for long-exposure photography using filters. The foreground rocks and coastal grasses provide strong compositional elements, allowing for creative framing and added depth, while the castle itself offers a dramatic and timeless focal point.
- Small Details along the coast
- Coffee break & composition chat.
Lunch
- Food can be arranged in Bamburgh or nearby Seahouses, both offering a good selection of cafés and pubs. Alternatively, you’re very welcome to bring a packed lunch if you prefer.
Afternoon
- Dunstanburgh Castle offers a variety of unique shooting opportunities. You can get up close to the water, using the renowned “Death Rocks” as a dramatic foreground—tide permitting and always keeping safety in mind, as these rocks can be treacherous
- There’s also the option to approach the castle from the opposite side. This angle is photographed less often but still offers plenty of creative possibilities for composition and perspective.
- Option to discuss blending natural/cultural subjects.
- Closing circle: recap learnings, Q&A, feedback.
