Listen up, budding photographers.
Ballynahinch Castle, based in Galway, will host photography workshops with Podge Kelly at the helm this November, designed to help novices to get the most out of either their phone cameras or DSLR cameras, or both.
The workshops will cover still life and landscape photography (weather permitting), with participants exploring the magnificent estate and its setting through the lens of their cameras. The Ballynahinch grounds, changing skies and scenery, as well as the gorgeous seasonal colours will provide a wonderful source of inspiration.

Photography Workshops
The one-day workshop on Wednesday November 15th is all about taking photos with the camera on your mobile and learning about the variety of helpful apps to help you get the very best out of your phone.
Thursday’s workshop on 16th November 16th is a basic photography course for those with a DSLR (digital single lens reflex camera) and getting the best from it, ideally suited to those who have a camera but don’t know how to use all its features.
Booking details
The courses are limited to just six people each in order for Kelly to spend ample time with each student.
