Open to intermediate and advanced photographers. Foundational photography skills, such as those covered in our popular 1-2-3 Digital Photography Course are recommended but not required.
You'll benefit the most from this landscape workshop if you'll bring a wide angle and/or a medium length lens with you. A tripod is especially handy for sunset and sunrise photography. Comfortable, sturdy hiking boots and hiking clothes are important as you'll be hiking to various shooting locations. A warm jacket, warm hat and gloves are essential for staying comfortable while waiting for the sun to rise at higher elevations in October. Please see details below in "Further Details" regarding fitness level.
Rendezvous at 9:00 at the Zurich HB pickup spot. From here van transport is provided by Viewfinder Center. We are happy to make a pickup stop in Bern if that's more convenient. Alternatively, meet us directly in Valais. Address provided in confirmation email.
