This course is quite intensive and slightly strenuous, but most of the walks are on flat grounds, so only a reasonable level of fitness will be required. Our aim is for you to leave the course with a much better knowledge and understanding of the subject but also with a great experience that will stay with you for the rest of your life. And most importantly, with a few very good images that you will be proud of.

In the last decade Cornwall has emerged as one of the world's iconic destinations. From the dramatic coastline of the north to the sheltered bays in the south, from ancient moorland to soft river estuaries.
Cornwall forms the tip of the south-west peninsula of the island of Great Britain, and is therefore exposed to the full force of the prevailing winds that blow in from the Atlantic Ocean. The coastline is composed mainly of resistant rocks that give rise in many places to impressive cliffs.
It is those winds and waves that are constantly changing the look of the coast and the ever changing light, makes it a pleasure but also a great challenge, for every landscape photographer to capture its beauty.
The north and south coasts have different characteristics. The north coast is more exposed and therefore has a wilder nature. The prosaically named High Cliff, between Boscastle and St Genny's, is the highest sheer-drop cliff in Cornwall at 223 metres. However, there are also many extensive stretches of fine golden sand which form the beaches that are so important to the tourist industry but also to us landscape photographers.
