The Wildlife Photography Workshop is a practical course written by two leading photographers who share their expert guidance and technical knowledge for photographing birds, mammals, plant life and close-up subjects such as insects.Photographic workshops are exceptionally popular, but not everybody has the time or budget to attend one in person.

Topics include equipment:
- Exposure
- Composition
- Lighting
- Close-up photography
- Birds
- Mammals
- Plant life
- Post-processing
Chapters dedicated to different types of wildlife give hands-on advice of how to locate, approach and photograph your subject using insider tricks of the trade. As well as a section of creative reader assignments for practical learning.
