ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP
In September, I will lead a new workshop for six photographers to explore and photograph the Great Ocean road region of Victoria, Australia. This workshop will take in the iconic locations of the Great Ocean Road, but also take you away from the main tourist locations to secret spots that are off the radar and unmarked. With more than twenty five years experience photographing the Great Ocean Road you will experience the very best it has to offer.
Accommodation: We will be based in Port Campbell for this workshop and staying in good quality hotels. Temperatures at this time of year will average between 12 to 20º Celsius + wind chill. WiFi is available at the accomodation and breakfast, lunch and dinner are included for the duration of the workshop.
Dietary Requirements: If you have special dietary requirements, we will do our best to accommodate you. Please just be sure to let us know when you make your booking.
Travel: We will use comfortable 4WD vehicles to commute during this workshop. The spring landscape in this part of Victoria is stunning in its unbridled wild beauty. There will be many opportunities to make landscape photographs during this workshop, and you should plan to bring both wide-angle lenses and telephoto lenses.
Equipment: Wide angle lenses and tripods are recommended for this workshop. We also recommend both neutral density and graduated neutral density filters. There may be potential opportunities with wildlife and its a good idea to also bring a telephoto lens.
