The first of two Birds of Prey photography workshops, organised by top wild life and sports photographer Jed Wee exclusively for his fellow DPS members, took place this week at the Swinton Park Birds of Prey Centre Nr Masham, N Yorks.
Angy Ellis Reports:
“Whether you are a beginner, keen hobbyist or professional, this day would have rewarded you in some shape or form. For many people, myself included, capturing a crisp image of a beautiful wild bird is wonderful. Those of you who have attempted to snap these birds will know that bird photography is a challenge. So we were really lucky to have Jed who arranged for us privileged close-up access to these beautiful birds. We were presented with outstanding opportunities to capture wonderful shots in different locations around the land. This was combined with Hints and Tips designed to help improve our photographic techniques and results. I personally increased my knowledge about histograms, ISO and shutter speeds from various members which resulted in me capturing some cracking shots. Nothing was too much trouble for Jed & Sophie the bird owner. Yes it was cold, Yes it was raining, Yes it was muddy…..but did I come away an abundance of great shots. YES I did! Thanks Jed. “
