Over the course of this workshop we will explore the magnificent scenery of this unique region as well as incorporating visits to some of the local villages. Where possible (weather and conditions allowing) we’ll take the opportunity to include both dawn and dusk shoots to take advantage of the favourable light and to enable us to capture the mood and atmosphere of the area. Throughout, we will give you both practical and technical advice, to help you gain confidence and develop your photographic technique, as well as individual guidance and hands on demonstrations in the field. There will also be the opportunity to have your work critiqued as we look back over our images and review your progress.
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!
