Being able to capture the landscape around you just as you see it, is often the desire for most photographers when on holiday or out and about. Managing that process isn't always as straight forward as simply clicking the button on your camera!

Against the wonderful backdrop of the Tay Valley in Perthshire, World Renowned Leading Outdoor and Landscape photographer, Colin Prior, will guide and help you understand how to use the environment and light around you to give you the best chance of success in capturing the landscape as you see it. Out on location you will be developing and practising your skills returning each day to the stunning Hilton Dunkeld House Hotel where you will enjoy luxury accommodation, exquisite food excellent service and of course the chance to go through your shots of the day with Colin.
