A walk where you can shoot the exterior architecture and gardens of two Palladian villas from the 1700s, a folly with staggering statues of nymphs that gave a name to a local beer, a riverside and a bridge to a legendary island that helped the British Invasion of the 1960s. We will discuss angles, lighting and how best to make the architecture stand out.

I enjoyed the three hour photo walk entitled 'Bleak Midwinter' around Richmond Park very much. We focused on Black & White Photography with different filter settings. Stephen is very knowledgeable, helpful and patient! Looking forward to another walk in the future
