For extra info regarding my workshop/tours

This is an Annex for my main website at: www.fergiesfabfotos.info for all information including, Tin Can Bay photos, workshop/tour costs, and contact form

COVID 19

At the time of writing this amendment, May 17, 2022, there are no special Covid 19 restrictions in our area (Tin Can Bay/Cooloola Cove). However, social distancing is still a recommended thing and if you feel the need to wear a mask please do so.

The use of the "Check In Qld app" is currently not required but I will be asking for your full address; unless of course, I have your details beforehand.

Both my wife and myself are fully vaccinated against Covid; including boosters.

"TOURS"? I have added the word, "TOURS" to the title of this blog mainly because I sometimes get a client who is well-read with photographic knowledge and whose needs do not require a tutorial service but simply an information tour that might include some of the preferred local sites that would likely be best for acquiring a more desirable lighting situation or for better image composition.

Workshop needs Firstly, there is no necessity to bring any writing needs as I will have printed sheets that will include all of your own relevant workshop information.

On a personal note, I will advise of any special requirements needed by you on our workshop date and that might include, any particular photographic equipment, special footwear (waterproof), or clothing. But personal insect repellant is usually a must.

Wheelchair access? Sorry, but the photography walk-around workshop also includes terrain that is really not suitable for wheelchair access; however, other suitable workshop arrangements can be made.

Plus boosters

ABOUT ME . . .

Have you suddenly found a love of photography, but it frustrates you because you don’t seem to be getting anywhere with it? Do you feel your photography lacks that certain….finesse? Or would you just like some help with your camera? My main aim is to offer very low-cost assistance to all visitors to Tin Can Bay, and locals alike, who have a strong interest, as I do, in photographing the natural assets of Tin Can Bay and its surrounds; with subjects that may include the land/seascape scenery or the naturally occurring flora or fauna of the area. My 3 hour workshop/tour sessions can also offer help with camera skills; such as, how best to set your camera for subjects you want to shoot and/or the best ways to compose those subjects to build and create maximum interest in photos. This will include learning some of the old tried and true composition guidelines, passed on by the classic artists and those that pro-photographers continue to use in current situations, in order to also create similar interest in their own images. Be aware, however, that although all cameras, regardless of make or model, are designed to do one thing, take pictures, their operations and functions do differ greatly from brand to brand; so, if you require assistance with just your camera, please bring your operator’s manual with you. It is also worth noting here, the necessity of having a thorough knowledge of how your camera, lenses and associated accessories operate prior to thinking about learning the fineries of better photo taking but allow me to help you achieve those skills or at least set you on the right path.
