MARWELL ZOO is offering photographers an opportunity to broaden their horizons.

Photo Experience Day Tours grant photography enthusiasts special one-day access to allow them a closer look at the wildlife.

Workshop participants will be given the chance to gain expert one-to-one tuition on all aspects of photography from local wildlife experts and photographers.

In previous years, highlights enjoyed by budding photographers have included the photography of chameleons and skin patterns of rhinos, encounters with big cats and face-to-face meetings with giraffes.

The fun-packed workshops mean that delegates return time and time again. In the words of one participant: "We don't normally get the opportunity to feed some animals and get as close to them as we did on the photo day."

For those who aren't able to attend the workshops, a further two winter workshops are scheduled for November, which will follow a more tropical theme.

Places for the one-day workshops still remain for Wednesday next week and October 8.
