Dinorwic Quarry above Llanberis was once the second largest slate quarry in the world and the Dinorwic slate quarry photography workshop is an opportunity to improve your photography skills in this unique and amazing area of Eryri Snowdonia’s industrial heritage. During this one day workshop we climb through some of the vast abandoned areas of the quarry photographing the inclines, derelict buildings, the secret dinorwic waterfall and the stunning views of the Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) mountain range. The Dinorwig quarry photography workshop is the perfect opportunity to develop your eye for a composition and take your photography to the next level, literally!
