Crystal Palace Park
Photography courses at Crystal Palace have some of the weirdest sights in London. There are 200 acres of landscaping, including the famous Victorian dinosaurs, and mysterious sphynxes left over from the Crystal Palace before it burned down. There are miles of paths and interconnected lakes that were originally designed to be artificially tidal through ingenious Victorian engineering. As a result it’s a great place for photography, of both the landscape and single subject variety.
We meet at the Crystal Palace Cafe (free parking, next to the Info Centre) at 10am for coffee and a briefing (except mobile phone course which is at 11am). We move up through the park (dinosaurs permitting!), taking prehistoric portraits and landscapes of the wide-open views. We review all this at a cafe in the Crystal Palace main street, and return to the park cafe for 4pm. It’s fun, educational and flexible, like all our photography courses.
