Gelt River Workshop

from £225.00

A fantastic workshop taking in various locations along the River Gelt in Cumbria. We will have ample time to work on long exposure photography and getting the best from your water shots. This beautiful area has lots of history with it and includes Roman quarries used to supply the stone for the Roman wall nearby. Further evidence of the Roman influence is the large Sweet Chestnut trees that grow in the surrounding woodland. It really is a beautiful area which I am very lucky to have on my doorstep and thus know the woodland and river really well. This workshop will be limited to two participants as I will be able to dedicate as much time as possible to you both (Add a guest for just £50) ( 8 am - 12 pm or 1 pm - 5 pm).

As this workshop is local to me, I can arrange lunch/evening meal and/or accommodation for you at my award-winning village pub. Please let me know your requirements in advance.
