Nightscape Photography Gear Checklist - Free Download
Try this FREE downloadable resource! This one page PDF will help you to remember everything that you need to take on your nightscape photography shoots.
I created this checklist after driving for half an hour to a location that I’d been planning to photograph for weeks. When I got there I realised that I’d forgotten to take my SD card out of the laptop. The feeling when you realise you’ll be heading home without any photos is horrible!
I’ve printed mine out it’s stuck on the bedroom door. Before each ight photography trip I check through it to make sure I haven’t forgotten anything. It’s simple but it really works.

This is the guide that I recommend to anyone joining one of my Orchid Hunting wildflower photography walks.
With colour paintings covering 69 species, subspecies and hybrids, the FSC Guide to Orchids features all of the orchids you are likely to find in Great Britain (including the Channel Islands) and Ireland.
Illustrated identification keys on the reverse side highlight the main identification features that can be observed in the field. Guidance is given on the distribution, habitats, statutory Conservation Designations and statutory Rarity Designations of all the orchids featured.

Recommended to: Anyone joining one of my Orchid Hunting photography workshops. Also, anyone who isn’t joining a workshop and would like a handy orchid identification guide for using throughout the United Kingdom.
