Night at Tyne (Night Photography)
Sunday 10 December
Newcastle and Gateshead Quayside - 5pm - 2 Hours
Jenny Vest
The river Tyne is one of the most beautiful locations within the city at night with the illuminated bridges and architecture. Capture the beauty during this night time session and unlock your creativity with interesting ways of capturing the various landmarks. During this session we will explore composition techniques and you will master the different ways to capture the light creatively.
This session is great photographers with all levels of experience, from the complete beginner to the more intermediate photographer. Don't forget to bring your tripod along with you and grab your gloves. It gets extremely cold during this time of year. I highly recommend investing in a cable shutter so you can keep your hands close to your body and away from the bite of the river.

Join Jenny for the annual relaxed photography walk through the Dene, finishing at the iconic Armstrong Waterfalls. This experience is ideal for those who've unwrapped a new camera this Christmas and are eager to embark on their photography journey.
Additionally, it offers valuable insights for enthusiastic amateurs seeking to enhance their camera skills and grasp the concepts of the exposure triangle. All cameras, including mobile phones, are welcome on this session, so don't let that hold you back.
There is an opportunity to try long exposure photography of the waterfalls and it's advisable to bring along a sturdy tripod. If you don't have one, that's ok as I have one available for borrowing, though you might need to wait your turn to use it.
