I attended a walk and talk with Rich last week about British owls with my 13 year old daughter. I cannot recommend Rich enough - the talk was extremely informative and then there was the walk, which was excellent. Rich gave us a real insight into how to interpret landscape to give us the best chance to see owls. We were rewarded with seeing two Little Owls, enhanced by also being able to view them...

Fantastic 1:1 half day session with Rich covering the twilight hours and either side. My objective was to build confidence with manual settings of the camera, along with framing and composition under various light conditions. Rich’s knowledge, experience and personable manner culminated in an enjoyable and creative evening. I’ve leant lots and have new found energy and enthusiasm to take what I’ve...

I had a private 1 day lesson with Richard and found it really informative. Tailored specifically to me so I got the most from the day. I was keen to learn more about my camera especially the Manual mode which I was a bit wary of. I came away from my lesson feeling much more confident with my camera and have gone on to get some photos I am very pleased with. Richard teaches in a very relaxed and fr...

Very interesting, informative and inspiring walks/talks with Rich. Firstly finding all about kingfishers, and where to find them, culminating in sightings at Ilkley. Later in the day, despite the inclement weather, we had another great session on owls. This resulted in sightings near the studio in Burley. Rich is obviously very knowledgeable and shares this information in a friendly and informati...

Rich gave a very informative and interesting overview on Kingfishers and Owls prior to each walk offering plenty of top tips and advice. On both walks we headed out to the local area and as we headed around the walk Rich was always pointing out what to look for in search for of Kingfishers and Owls. Both walks resulted in sightings, Rich clearly knows his stuff and the areas to go to.... Armed wi...

A really enjoyable day, in and around Ilkley, with great scenery, excellent company and plenty of wildlife spotting opportunities. Rich ensured that we were in the best locations and provided many tips on how to spot wildlife and capture better images. Looking forward to returning.

121 class with Rich was tailored specifically for me. The first half of the day was about theory and understanding my camera. The second half of the day was about reviewing photos I’d taken and offering comments to improve with better composition and lighting. This was followed by a practical session at the local nature reserve applying the theory and practice gained. Thoroughly enjoyed it. For ...

What a great experience. Thoroughly enjoyable. I like taking photos but have always had my camera/phone set on auto mode. Well, I’m pleased to say that will now be a thing of the past. The course was well paced. It covered the basics, eg , lighting, aperture, shutter speed and photo composition. All explained in simple terms. Plenty of opportunity to ask questions. Rich is a fantastic teacher, ...
