WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE FIELD
During this workshop, the opportunities are endless. Come and join me for this special Landscape workshop as I cross over into both genres of both landscape and birds/wildlife. I will be on hand to help you become a better and more intuitive and well-rounded photographer.
Landscapes, Waterfalls, Rainforest, Mountains
Drink in the vistas from your rooms and from the dining room there are shots to captured everywhere and in close proximity to your accommodation. For the more adventurous, we will be visiting most of the major local attractions as well as one of my own personal favourite spots. Many of these locations offer some great opportunities to photograph a vast array of different landscapes, natural features, colours, stunning fungus, large trees, ferns and moss and of course lets not forget all the waterfalls including Elabana Falls and Moran Falls.
We will visit the various locations at key times of the day ensuring you have every opportunity to take advantage of the best light and natural features of the area whilst learning new techniques. I will be there to help and guide you. There will also be a group critique session when time permits.
Birds
IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT THE AREA
You will need to have a reasonable fitness level for this workshop as it is predominately landscape based. The itinerary suits most people, however, to really experience the diversity and the waterfalls we will be doing a lot of walking including the longer Circuit Walk (about 12 km) its a must see. Please keep in mind if you want to get the best out of this trip you need to do some walking and be capable of this. The tracks themselves are generally good but can be steeper in places, keep in mind this is a mountain, we will be crossing shallow waterways and traversing a few rocks to get into locations. You may be in shallow water for some shots and it can be very slippery depending on the weather. You must be reasonably confident with this although I and the rest of the group will be there to help and on hand if required for support.
If you would prefer to just concentrate on birds and the short rainforest walks that's fine too but you will be left to your own devices when we all venture out on our bigger walks. The other option is starting the bigger walks and when you feel you have had enough or getting too tired you can head back to some bird photography near the accomodation. I will do my best to try and accomodate everyone but you also need to play your parts and make an effort.
If you have any concerns please contact me (Julie) via email before booking to discuss further.
