Six One Hour Weekly Sessions

This course offers all new material from previous photography courses and is aimed at all levels. We will explore photography inspiration and experiment with techniques that are happening now. The sessions seek to offer pathways into what is happening now in the world of photography. The course explores photography histories and why they can help us today, learning from modern and contemporary photography, looking to the wonder of astronomy photography, inspiration from wildlife and travel photography, spotlighting key themes and photographers, understanding how to navigate photography spaces such as festivals, and ending with photography close to home with British and Irish photography. Each session is packed with inspiration from photographers as well as a wealth of practical activities and tools to use within your own photography, which includes online resources crafted especially for members of the course.
