The Photo tour starts on a Friday evening, with a full day on Saturday and concludes Sunday afternoon. Our photographer, David Buzzeo, will guide you through how to choose the best location for a given day and time. How to work an alpine site. What special considerations there are for shooting in the mountains? Composition beyond the rule of thirds. An in-depth look at exposure strategies. Photographing in less than ideal conditions, (low light, overcast days, bad weather, extreme contrast etc.), post-production tips.
Participants are responsible for their own accommodations and meals. All the photo sites are easily accessed from the roadway and involve no more than an easy fifteen-minute walk.
