Photographic workshops are exceptionally popular but not everybody has the time or budget to attend one in person. This ‘workshop in book form’ allows you to absorb the benefits of the workshop experience without actually being on location with the professionals.
Whatever your level of experience, this comprehensive book will help you improve and capture better photographs whether you are a beginner or an enthusiast who wants to brush up on some skills. Be guided by the authors’ breadth of knowledge and follow the progression of technical advice. Chapters dedicated to different types of wildlife give hands-on advice of how to locate, approach and photograph your subject using insider tricks of the trade.
