Photoshop Training Course – geared to the photographer who wants to take his or her work beyond the average.  This is often attached to another course.  

Assignment Photography  – taking your photography to a professional or semi-pro level. The course gives you hands on experience in a variety of demanding situations and explains how to come through them with THE shot.  Different ways to make money from the camera are discussed,  there are sessions on the business side of photography  and advantageous ways to work with clients and photo-libraries are explored.

Thinking Photography Course – examines the principals of photography and teaches the student to apply them to a range of practical situations, from action and wildlife to scenery and portraiture.  The aim is not to give a series of learn responses for set situations but to teach the student to THINK photographically and get sharp images all the time.  Other sessions on this course examine what actually makes a good photo.
