Photography workshop
Early spring in Zamagurie
Early spring offers snow-covered mountains, frequent fogs and beautiful scenery
Zamagurie is full of picturesque corners with views of the Belianske Tatras. For many photographers, the most interesting part of the year is spring and autumn. A typical spring in this region starts only in the second half of May and is beautiful, full of juicy colors and views. But even early spring offers a lot. There is still snow in the Tatras, in the valleys autumn yellow grass is mixed with green conifers. In short, something that is definitely worth seeing.

Characteristics of the workshop
The workshop is intended primarily for photographers and tourists interested in landscape photography. 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 how 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 what I call "systematic" photography. Over a beer and a meal, we will later talk more about basic but also advanced photo editing (HDR, time blending, focus stacking, etc.).
Advantages of the workshop
the Zamaguria region is one of the most landscape-attractive areas in Slovakia
spring here is full of contrasts and colors. If the conditions are good, there is still snow on the mountains and everything is already beautifully green in the foothills
we will go through the most beautiful locations that have already become a term among landscapers - Osturňa, Lapszanka, Lesnícke sedlo
good mood and willingness to explain and thereby pass on as much knowledge and experience as possible
pleasant accommodation, where we always spend a relaxing evening taking photos

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.
Anyway, we will get up early, we will be out for a long time, we will have a lot of fun and we will often go to bed late and you have to prepare for that :)
