Join Greg Sullavan from the Photographers Collective and learn how to create stunning landscape photographs using the HAIDA Filter system to enhance the natural beauty of the Sunshine Coast. Shooting landscapes is one of the most enjoyable photographic experiences and we have an endless stretch of coastline on our doorstep to shoot.

In this workshop, Greg will focus on the creative process and how to capture the best possible photograph from the landscape around you. Each participant will have the opportunity to use their own HAIDA M10 filter kit including stepping rings, filter holder, 6 stop ND, 10 stop ND, 15 stop ND and Soft ND Grad and a polarising filter.

Topics covered include:

    •     How to use ND filters

    •     How to calculate long exposure times

    •     How to read the scene and select shutter speeds for the best effect 

    •     When you would use a polarising and soft grad filter

At the end of the workshop, everyone is invited to enjoy dinner at a local restaurant (sorry, not included in ticket price). For those who are local, or staying on the Sunshine Coast overnight, are welcome to join Greg for a sunrise shoot to welcome the morning.
