Why Your Photos Never Quite Match What You Saw
What You’ll Learn and Shoot on the Day
This isn’t just a wander round Malham with a camera. You’ll use a proper mix of locations to practise composition, exposure, focus, long exposures, and working with light in the real world.
- 🟢 Janet’s Foss — practise long exposures and turn moving water into smooth, dramatic images
- 🟢 Gordale Scar — learn how to handle scale, shape, and more powerful compositions
- 🟢 Malham Tarn — work with reflections, shorelines, and calmer scenes with subtle detail
- 🟢 Limestone pavements — build stronger foregrounds with texture, depth, and pattern
- 🟢 Malham Rakes — capture mood, light, and that cracking lone-tree composition
- 🟢 Hidden viewpoints — shoot lesser-known spots that open up fresh ideas and angles
