Discover Tasmania

Australia, the Great South Land affectionately referred to as the land Down Under, is renowned for its rugged goods looks and unique wildlife. On this 13 day photography adventure will be exploring the dramatic landscapes and pristine wilderness areas of the island state of Tasmania. Spectacular ocean-carved shorelines, lush fern-filled forests, delicate waterfalls, panoramic coastal vistas, rugged hinterland mountain ranges and colourful boulder-strewn beaches are just some of the scenes we will be photographing. Along the journey we are likely to encounter iconic wildlife such as kangaroos, koalas, wombats and kookaburras, to name a few.

Our journeys will have us visiting some of the most picturesque areas in Tasmania, including: Cradle Mountain, the Tarkine, Bay of Fires, along with Freycinet and Mt Field National Parks.

In order to ensure there are ample opportunities for 1 to 1 tuition at each of our shooting locations, this workshop will be kept to a maximum size of 6 participants and will be hosted by Australian professional photographer Alan Barker.

We will commence our journey in Launceston and head directly to Cradle Mountain where we will spend our first three nights in Tasmania. We will then spend time discovering the west coast, before heading right across the state to venture down the east coast until our final destination of Hobart, the state capital.

So you are well rested and ready to go for each day’s activities, accommodation is included at modern, comfortable and well-equipped lodgings; with meal choices being typical of fresh, local Australian cuisine and generally something available to suit most tastes.

This workshop is designed for all levels of photographer from beginner to advanced or professional, as there are numerous unique opportunities available for everyone on this trip. So whether you’re looking to master manual mode, learn how to improve your shooting technique, fine-tune your current skill set, or refine compositional techniques and the like, this trip will provide you a fantastic opportunity to do so. Of course, spouses or partners who are not photographers are always more than welcome and I'm sure they will enjoy the stunning landscapes and wildlife.

This photography workshop caters for all fitness levels, however a reasonable level of fitness is recommended to take advantage of all of the locations which we will encounter.

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!
