Whats the plan?
We'll meet by the car park, red telephone box and go through camera equipment and general practice for the day. The stags are fairly used to people and show well typically however they are pumped with testosterone so we'll keep a safe distance for the animals. Deer workshops can be arranged for other times of the year also for snow shots, calfs and bluebell images.
Whats to bring?
Long lens of 300mm
Monopod or Tripod
Walking boots/Waterproofs (neutral colours recommended)
Extra Memory cards & Battries
Flask or packed lunch (there are cafes at the park and toilets)
Number of people on workshop: 6 max though advised 1 - 2 - 1
Difficulty
There are paths all around the park though it can be hilly in places and a fair bit of walking depending where the rut happens that year. Lots of parking available at £5.00 for the day.
