Training

Camera Images provide one to one training for Nikon users, and although do not have any courses specifically for canal photography, they are able to provide practical training at a canal location. They have a number of canals within easy reach of their base including the Gloucester & Sharpness Canal, Oxford Canal, and Stratford-Upon-Avon canal. Take a look at their website for details of the courses they provide and for contact details to discuss your particular individual requirements. See Camera Images.
