Brown Hare workshops 

Workshops for 2023 have ended. I am now taking bookings for 2024. The workshops will run between 1st March 2024 and 1st of September 2024.

Venue

Eaton Manor, Shropshire.

This workshop gives you the opportunity to spend the day in Shropshire, photographing Britain’s fastest land mammal, the Brown Hare. It’s no secret that brown hares can be difficult to photograph, their ability to see and hear you coming and the speed at which they can disappear is incredible.

This workshop is run on a 1-1 basis as this ensures that I can offer you the maximum guidance and support and it also reduces the stress on any hares as we approach by foot.

For morning sessions we will meet 30 minutes before sunrise and the session will last approximately 4 hours. For afternoon sessions we will meet 4 hours before sunset.

Every workshop will be charged in full, on the day of booking.

Meeting Location:

Eaton Manor Country Estate

Eaton-under-Heywood
Church Stretton
Shropshire
SY6 7DH
England

Meeting times will vary due to hours of sunrise and sunset

Equipment Required

Your favourite camera

A focal length of 400mm or above would be ideal for this location.

Tripod may be useful but consider you may also at ground level, a beanbag can be useful.

Warm, waterproof clothing, including wellies.

Spare cards and batteries.

Fitness: The walk only requires a basic level of fitness however, like all wildlife, the hares don’t stay in one place and depending on the day they could be in any one of the fields, so there could be some flat-level walking involved. You may also be required to crawl through the field to increase your chances of success.. ! 

 

These guided workshops will be run every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday during the months of March, April, May and June 2023
