Focusing in the Fernery @Peter Spooner

16 photographers enjoyed a photo shoot in the mansion at Tatton, providing the opportunity to photograph internal views of the lavishly furnished rooms and detailed shots of the furniture and artefacts.

The event was organised to give photographers the rare opportunity to take photographs without the presence of the visiting public by using a day when the mansion was closed. Public photography is not usually allowed in the mansion.

The feedback on the day was very positive with those attending welcoming the opportunity to practice their skills in a unique environment. All who attended said that the occasion was most enjoyable, informative and photographically challenging.

The final session of the day was a visit to the Italian Gardens and Fernery to photograph the exterior details of the Italian Garden, Mansion and the flowers and variety of ferns growing within the Fernery.

It was an enjoyable day for all concerned.
