The Sydney Day course is a hands on course run entirely in the field for photographers of all levels. Participants will be instructed on photographic techniques and skills from the ground up.
The course goes for approx 7 hours and takes in shooting sunset usually at Observatory Hill where the days acquired skills are put into practice and students can put the final touches on their newly acquired set of skills.
During the day we tour around the Circular Quay area shooting iconic locations like the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge. There is a heavy focus on composition shooting, looking at these icons in a new way with how they can be photographed, both as single captures and also as digital panoramic's.
A maximum of 8 participants per course.
