Photography at the Fen

About the event

The largest valley fen in England and one of the most important wetlands in Europe, the Trust's Redgrave & Lopham Fen reserve boasts 270 plant species, a wealth of birdlife and the delightful Konik ponies. In 1956, the fen was the first place the fen raft spider was found in Britain and is still only found in a handful of places.

With such an abundance of incredible subjects, Kevin will guide you on the techniques you can employ to capture the perfect shot and provide you with some hints & tips for getting the best out of your camera. You will receive one-to-one as well as group guidance on optimising your composition and have the chance to put some novel techniques into practice on this lovely reserve. 

You will need to bring:
All camera equipment (including spare batteries, memory cards)
Notebook and pen
A tripod would be useful 
A packed lunch and all refreshments you may need
Please wear stout footwear and weather-suitable clothing for the outdoor session.
