Waddesdon Manor is one of the UK's most spectacular chateau's. Built in the French
Renaissance-style in 1874, the architect Gabriel Hippolyte Destailleur created
a very lavish construction. Originally it was only used at weekends by
Lord Rothschild's well to do friends.
It is perfect for exploring the techniques of creative architecture with its
turrets and towers, statues and fabulous gardens.
At the run up to Christmas Waddesdon Manor's exterior is exquisitely
decorated in readiness for the festive season.
As a special feature of this event we'll be shooting its beautiful
woodland trees and the building itself dramatically floodlit and adorned in
twinkling lights hanging from the trees. The imposing front of the building
will also be lined with superb Christmas trees. The result will be
some of your most remarkable images.
We'll teach you the skills of lowlight and explain the use of long exposure
noise reduction and demonstrate why its important to make as extended
an exposure as possible in the dimmest of light. The effects of reprocity failure
will be explained and how to set the white balance manually and how by
sampling an image you can create natural colour.
Full 1:1 help will be given throughout.
