Photo course 2007
Last year I ran three very successful 3-day photo courses in conjunction with Cycleactive in the Lake District. I had a great time, everyone went home with some useful tips and the feedback was very positive. This year, unfortunately, I can't spare the time. But I am thinking of running a (one-off) course off my own back.
It'd be later in the year (think September / October), probably in the southwest or south Wales. Three days (ish), with two nights' b&b and pub grub in the evenings. Some great riding, lots of guidance on how to improve your mountain bike pictures and feedback via slideshows at the end of each day.
Cost depends on numbers and accommodation, but it'd probably be in the region of £350-£400 plus meals.
Nothing's decided yet, so I need to gauge potential interest before firming up dates and logistics (or, alternatively, canning the idea). Put your hand up if you'd be interested. Come on now, don't be shy...
You too could have the chance to lie in the path of oncoming riders and then say 'that was great... can you do it again?'
Nikon D200, 85mm f/1.4, 1/250sec f/3.5 @ ISO100
I'm definately interested, please let me know when you have more info.

I did Sebs course last september, I can thoroughly recommend it!
Some of the photos I took during the course (in the lakes) can be seen at:-

Right then. I'll have a look into the details and see if I can put something together. Keep an eye on the blog, because you'll see it here first...
