Photographing Lakes, Rivers & Waterfalls – Capturing Movement in Water – Snowdonia North Wales

Nothing beats walking along a river bank with your camera in Autumn!  Join us in Betws Y Coed for an autumnal photography walk – from macro (and close-up) to mountain lakes and forests of colour, this Welshot full day event will have it all for the outdoor photographer.  This will be an easy, relaxed and fun stroll with lots of stops to concentrate on capturing the movement of the flowing River Conwy.  After we’ve captured the trees in all their golden glory, practised long exposures and shot all manner of details that can be found in rock formations we will head up to Plas Y Brenin – National Outdoor Centre to capture the sun going down behind Yr Wyddfa (Mount Snowdon) from Llynnau Mymbyr.

Shooting long exposures can be challenging – Today, and into the early evening you will be learning how to use each element of the exposure triangle (ISO / Shutter / Aperture) to create your image.  Understanding the exposure triangle is an important part of knowing how to use your camera, especially when potentially shooting in low light.  Learning how to use your shutter speeds and exposure times with the ambient (and natural light) will help to create a variety of looks in your photographs. At this capturing movement in water workshop you will be making and creating unique and inspiring images to be proud of.

  • How to use your camera settings and functions
  • How to use your Exposure Triangle to give your images a different look/feel
  • How to capture movement in water
