Have you thought that the photographs you have taken, whether portraits, landscapes or abstract works, would benefit from professional guidance? This course will take you through a step-by-step guide to taking better photographs, getting the most out of your camera and introducing you to the basics of black and white printing. Ideal for anyone with a keen eye and enthusiasm to experiment, you will leave the course with a portfolio of new images and the confidence to create exciting images across the range of photographic disciplines.
