In Person Workshop Slimbridge Wetland Centre

October 28th,11:00am to 4:00pm | 20 GBP

 

Reconnect with nature and learn to appreciate the beauty of these unique wetland habitats with OM SYSTEM Ambassador Rob Cottle as your guide. During this day-long retreat you'll get the chance to learn more about the fascinating birds and wildlife that call Slimbridge home, and see first-hand why these precious habitats are deserving of our protection. As we explore the centre together you'll learn useful wildlife observation skills as well as photography techniques to use on your own future adventures. This is a unique workshop that combines the art of photography with a deep dive into the wonders of our natural environment.

 

Rob's top 5 photography tips/topics that he will cover during this workshop:

 Happy wildlife makes a better image

 Ethical wildlife photography

 Nurture nature and improve your photography

 Capturing a moment

  Find your own path

 

Please note! The price of your ticket does not include accommodation or lunch: you'll need to pack your own sandwiches. We will meet you at 10:45am at the main entrance to Slimbridge WWT and plan to finish at 4.00pm. You will need to bring your own camera and lenses: you may be able to borrow and try additional lenses from our team on the day. Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear for the time of year and weather. 

 

What does Nature mean to our Ambassador Rob Cottle?

    I sell prints, talk a bit, scribble a bit, work at workshoping, musicating and like to find interesting ways to photograph local wildlife.

    Wildlife is the reason I pick up the camera but the camera makes me go out to see it more often.
