Discover why the first light of the day is the best time for photography.

Northumberland Photography Workshop 31st October 2026

There are few better times to photograph the Northumberland coast than first light. Learn to predict the sun’s position, capture dawn’s changing colours, balance bright skies with darker landscapes, and create compelling compositions.

Depending on the time of year and conditions, locations might include Amble, Coquet Island, Warkworth, Bamburgh or Dunstanburgh Castle.

You’ll also discover why the best photographs aren’t necessarily taken at the exact moment the sun appears above the horizon.
