Two-Day Workshop
This workshop will follow on from the one-day event. Attendance at the one-day is not essential, but basic familiarity with close-up techniques and with digital image manipulation will be assumed. This will be a participative event with some field work (in Bath!). Delegates should bring a camera with macro facility if available (e.g. a macro lens), tripod and flash. If you have one, a laptop to download and view images would be useful.
