About the event

Join Sony Digital Imaging Advocate Andrew Clarke and start your weekend the right way shooting at one of Andrew's favourite Perth sunrise locations!

Although this workshop is suitable for all levels, this location is best suited for long exposure and landscape photography. For any beginners, Andrew will be onhand to take you through the basics of long exposure and show you some of the unique compositions available.

For the more experienced, this location is also well suited for various image composite techniques - such as focus stacking, panorama, HDR as well as stacking images with different shutter speeds. If you're keen on stepping up your composite game, this is a perfect workshop to pick up some images to work with!
