On Thursday 17th September, 6CC had the pleasure of learning from a local photographer, Mr Nightingale, who walked the children through the history of photography and explored the tools a modern-day photographer uses in the field. The children also got the chance to view and hold both past and current equipment. Thank you very much, Mr Nightingale!
.On 17th September, Year 5 & 6 took part in an exciting photography workshop led by local photographer Steve Nightingale as part of our expedition, ‘Photographs that changed the world’. The pupils looked at how photography and camera technology has developed over time. Steve taught us about some of the most iconic photos ever taken, including Neil Armstrong on the moon and ‘Tank Man’, and the cameras and people who took them. We also discovered that Steve is a keen wildlife photographer and has taken some truly amazing photos of animals. He showed us a close up snap of a jumping spider and a magnificent barn owl mid-flight!
