Ethiopia

The east African country of Ethiopia, located on the ancient continent's horn, is becoming an exciting new destination for photographers.

Visit this country with a professional photographer who specialises in travel. Valerie will explain the techniques needed to capture all the beautiful images of rustic architecture, extreme landscapes, lively marketplaces, colourful culture and dancing, and unique wildlife.

Concentrated in the northern half of the country, the tour will fly to various destinations so there's more time to take photos with impact. Highlights of the journey include:

  • The lively capital Addis Ababa
    Bahar Dar -- Blue Nile Falls and Ancient monestaries on Lake Tana
    Lalibela's rock-hewn churches
    Gelada baboons near Gondar
    Simien Mountains & Gondar Castle
    The arid Tigrray area bordering Eritrea
    and Harar's old city, Muslim markets and feeding
    of the hyenas.

Valerie will instruct on camera fundamentals, and elaborate on the techniques key to getting the photos you want. For example, dancers in difficult lighting, creative techniques for spectacular water falls, and the interiors of monasteries and churches. Capure the vitality of the markets and the esoteric wildlife in its habitat.

The tour is open to photographic enthusiasts with or without experience, and all photos will be critiqued.

If you want to gain a professional insight into travel
photography and share the experience wih like-minded
people, then this 17-day trip is a great way to do it. Enjoy
sharing knowledge and experiences, along with a sense
of adventure.

Partners and friends are also invited and activities related to
other interests will be organised.
