My next B&W Landscape Photography Workshop to be run in The Burren in county Clare is now set for 20th, 21st & 22nd of April 2012. The cost of the workshop is €185 per person.
Taking you from the initial camera exposure, through development of the film and finishing with the print, this weekend workshop promises to be an unmissable event.
The workshop is designed to suit both beginners and advanced film photographers and caters for those shooting 35mm, medium format or large format. As well as scheduled demonstrations, I will be on-hand to assist each participant during the weekend, whatever level they are at.
Three excursions into the beautiful Burren landscape and also on the coast of Galway Bay will be made during the weekend to practice various exposure techniques at different times of the day, with different lighting conditions. This will cover the following:
Different metering techniques
Long exposures
Multiple exposures
Reciprocity considerations
Using Infrared films
Having exposed your films, we will then use various film developing techniques such as:
Pushing & pulling film
Stand development
Two-Bath Contrast Compensating development
Use of Staining developers.
Printing techniques to be demonstrated and then used by each participant include:
Split Grade Printing
Water-Bath Development
f-stop Printing
Print Flashing
Lith Printing
Coating of Liquid Emulsion on canvas to then print on.
We will be based in Ballyvaughan which is just two kilometres from the Buren College of Art which is where our Darkroom facilities are located. Ballyvaughan is a lovely village located on the coast with lots of pubs and restaurants. All the locations we will be photographing are within a ten minute drive. I have negotiated a group rate for the highly recommended Logues Lodge Hotel. They are offering us a reduced bed and breakfast rate of €40 for single rooms en suite. The lodge serves meals all day and their food is excellent.
The college has two darkrooms equipped with excellent enlargers and facilities. There is a third room for film development which can be used at any time over the weekend. In fact, the darkrooms are open until 10pm each day which provides us with great opportunities to come and go as we please.
The workshop will start at 4pm on Friday 20th and finish at 5pm on Sunday 22nd April. Places are limited, so early booking is advised. The workshop fee of €185 is required to secure your place. The special hotel rate of €40 per night can be paid on departure. If anyone prefers to stay at an alternative hotel or B&B etc., then that’s perfectly fine.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
