Photography workshop
Scotland, Isle of Skye
Iconic place of landscape photography
The Scottish island of Skye probably needs no introduction. Wild nature, beautiful mountains, beaches and unpredictable weather that changes several times a day. But it is the unstable weather that is interesting for the photographer. All the more chance that the gloomy rainy landscape will change in a second and be flooded with light at sunset. This is why many photographers find it worthwhile to travel to this beautiful corner of the world.
It will also be my first visit to Scotland, so it will be about discovering new places together. Of course, I will plan the entire trip in detail, including points for photography. And I believe that together we will also want to discover something new and explore lesser-known places.

Characteristics of the workshop
The workshop is intended primarily for photographers interested in landscape photography. Due to the nature of the landscape, this course is intended primarily for photography at wider focal lengths, but a telephoto lens will definitely find its place.
It will not be a classic workshop, but rather a photo expedition, during which we will discover new places together. There are many places on the Isle of Skye that are easily accessible by car, but there are certainly also many places that are hidden from the average tourist, and I would like to visit such places with you.

Weather on the island
The Isle of Skye is characterized by really changeable weather, which can change several times a day.
In October, the daytime temperature is around 11°C and at night it drops to around 5°C
We certainly have to expect rain and it is necessary to prepare for it

Note:
Landscape photography is mainly about the weather and it can be really harsh in Scotland and you have to be prepared for it.
