To be on the beach at sunrise is a magical time! Some people will think you are mad for leaving that toasty warm bed in the dark. But you will discover how to understand the morning light and learn how to capture stunning images in your camera.

This course is suited to photographers at all experience levels, from beginners to advanced. It is aimed at controlling the early morning First Light and being truly creative with it!  As the sun rises you get fast changes in light, density and hue and we are changing camera settings to maintain optimum exposure and effect. It's the perfect way to learn photography in Sydney.

The course is split into 3 sections. The first using First Light and creating long exposures over the water. Secondly a short lesson in shooting in Manual Mode over a coffee, and lastly shooting creative Portraiture into the sea working with bodies, tones and shapes.

To do this sunrise photography course in Manly you will need your camera with manual function, and a tripod for the long exposure section during first light. If you don't have a tripod you can still do this section, but its better with one.

* The course start time is one hour before the official sunrise time, which varies throughout the year.
