Photography workshop

Summer in the Tatras at Téry's cottage

A colorful Tatra summer in one of the most interesting valleys

The small cold valley is one of the most interesting Tatra valleys. It provides a lot of diverse scenes and compositions on a relatively small area, giving space for Kayinary photography. Whether you like wild falling water, reflecting pools, majestic rock walls or blooming valleys - you can see all this right here. The advantage is that, apart from the ascent to the cottage itself, no further ascents will be necessary during the entire weekend. Everything important will happen in the immediate vicinity of the cottage. Simply in Mala Studená dolina we will be able to try our hand at photographing a truly diverse mountain landscape.

Characteristics of the workshop

The workshop is intended primarily for photographers and tourists interested in landscape photography. Due to the nature of the landscape, this course is intended primarily for photography with wider focal points.You can be a complete beginner who wants to see more about the possibilities of your camera, or you can be an advanced photographer who would like to understand even more deeply the methods of creating a composition or working with light. The course is intended for both groups of photographers. Along with that, together we will learn to use auxiliary equipment more effectively when photographing in the field (tripod, tripod tips, cable trigger, filters), we will explain how important planning is and something I call "systematic" photography. Later, over a beer and a meal, I will introduce you to more about how to turn ordinary landscape photography into artistic landscape photography.  We will also talk more about basic and advanced photo editing (HDR, time blending, focus stacking, etc.)*. In this workshop, your relationship with the mountains is also important. We will spend the whole of it in the Tatras and we will not avoid the ascent and certainly also the vagaries of the weather. 

* If your knowledge is at the beginner level, don't worry. I will meet with you in a small group a few hours before the official start of WS and we will explain the basic parameters of photography, camera control and the like. 

Advantages of the workshop

Malá Studená Dolina offers a really diverse type of mountain landscape
at a really short distance from the base camp of the workshop, we can find a number of photographically attractive places 
good mood and willingness to explain and thereby pass on as much knowledge and experience as possible
accommodation in a mountain hut, which has its own unique atmosphere

Program 

1 day - WS will start with a meeting in Starom Smokovci for the Hrebienok cable car station. After a short introduction and basic information, we will set off towards Téry's cottage, where we will stay.  Then we will go up to the hut, where after accommodation and strengthening we will set off (depending on the conditions) to photograph the sunset   After returning to the hut, we will explain the rest of the workshop program and discuss places we would like to visit. We will go through their photos together and make a precise plan. We will check the weather possibilities and explain the basic theory for photographing this type of landscape, so that you are sufficiently prepared for the next photo shoot :)
2nd day-  depending on the conditions, we will go early in the morning for the first light photography. Weather permitting, we will take photos until late morning. After a lunch break, we will set off for the sunset.   Then just return to the chat, where we will go over everything from the previous day and look at some photos together. 
3rd day- in the morning we will get up early again and go to the sunrise and catch the first light. After taking photos, return to the cottage, check-in and descent to Starý Smokovec, where we will end the WS.

Note:

The program is not fixed and depends on the given situation, especially on the weather conditions and so that everyone has the opportunity and time to learn as much as possible on the spot and at the same time take good photos with them. During the entire photo shoot in the field, there will be a joint discussion on various practical topics related to landscape photography.
