Sharp Shots Photo Club will lead a photography workshop for families to learn how to photograph water creatively.

Using the Our Connection to Water exhibition as inspiration, Sharp Shots will take families on a tour through the exhibition, discussing the inspiring work and helping participants to understand how they too can capture water creatively with their cameras.

Two people look at their cameras in a park.

Participants will learn how to use focus, zoom, shutter speed and light to really help their water images stand out. All different types of water will be captured in the workshop, from running water, to water balloons, bubbles and the moving water of the Thames.

Participants will finish with a wonderful set of creative images of water, and will be able to print out their top two images to take home and share!

Camera hire is available on the day for £10; please contact Sharp Shots Photo Club to reserve a camera: info@sharpshotsphotoclub.co.uk
