We will meet at 5:30pm on the evening of the 4th April for introductions and an overview of the workshop before dinner.
Photography will commence with a sunrise shoot the next morning before breakfast. The exact itinerary each day is weather dependent but typically we will be out for the majority of the day for the four days however we will include some down time each day after lunch as the days are long with sunset at around 8:30pm.
Check out of the hotel after breakfast on April 9th
We will visit a number of locations over the course of the workshop which will offer you numerous challenges and allow you to fully explore your creative potential.
There will also be time to review and critique your images and the opportunity to discuss them together as we look back on our photography.
The workshop has a relaxed format and is designed to be enjoyable as well as well as educational, so aside of improving your photography you can also enjoy the beautiful surroundings and most importantly have fun!

The workshop is aimed at anyone who wants to improve their photography so photographers of all levels of experience are welcome. It is not suitable for the complete beginner.
