Camping on an Island, Gazing the Stars…!!
About the Tour :
We present a completely new photography experience, we have for you, a whole new way for expand your photographic horizons and come and shoot something attempted rarely by a large majority of Photographers. The Camp is mainly focusing on these four techniques :
Star Trail Photography : In Star Trail Photography, Photographers use the motion of the Earth to create a dynamic picture of the unseen motion of the world through Space, The final result is often a mesmerizing reminder of the unseen and almost unfelt ride that the Earth takes through the Cosmos.
Low Light Photography : In ideal conditions, even while shooting wildlife, the camera has a lot of light to play with, what will you do when the main source of the Light, the Sun is not visible any more? With low light photography, a new world awakens and calls out to you to capture it. Find out if you are a night shooter.
Light Paintings : Here is where we get to play with light in a way, that is simply not possible in Daytime, truly, the light and hands take the shape of clay and you could shape it anyway you like. A fun group activity which teaches you how other people can “make” subjects out of light
Post processing : Star Trail and Night shots don’t go through the same processing that day shots go through, as soon as we are done for the night we will discuss some common ways to deal with the issues we face in low light photography and also how to process star trails.
