Forces of Nature with Claire Carter [Series 1, 2025-26]

I am thrilled to finally welcome Claire Carter back to Camversation! We all utterly loved her previous presentation and I know so many people have been signing up to this one in anticipation!

Forces of Nature with Claire Carter

Forget the idea that landscape photography is about still life. In Claire’s world, the land is constantly moving, breathing, and changing.

In this 3-part series, Claire will share with you how to stop taking static snapshots and start capturing the energy of the elements - from the rushing tides of the Scottish Highlands to the dancing Northern Lights.

If your landscape images ever feel a bit flat, this is the series that will give them a pulse!
