Introduction to wildlife photography and mountain landscapes (autumn colours, spring light)
A preserved nature in the heart of the Southern Alps: you are in the Briançonnais... Between the Meije and Écrins countries. Wide horizons, breath of fresh air, magical scenery, alpine wildlife in a grandiose natural setting, unique panoramas of the Écrins massif to discover and a multitude of images to make in perspective... Here are walks with magnificent colourful landscapes. Spectacular views of the legendary summits: the Ecrins, the Pelvoux, the Meije, the Agneaux... We will try to capture the most beautiful attitudes and behaviours of the mountain animals (Ibex, Mouflons, Chamois and Marmots...). To travel through a territory through photographic hikes...
Material:Come with your usual digital camera (bridge, hybrid or reflex) and its instructions. The fundamental principles of photography and the rules of image composition remain the same regardless of the equipment.
For anyone wishing to learn about wildlife photography and who is in good physical condition. The walk is important (300m to 800m of difference in altitude per day) but the paths we use present little or no technical difficulty. You are with family, friends or alone ? You want to learn or improve your skills in the fields of photography and discover the basics of the digital lab.
Groups of 3 to 5 photographers maximum for the respect of animal life in their biotope and for the richness of the contacts.
Varied formulas
Adaptable photo courses, accessible to all ! From 2 to 5 days in week-ends, short and long stays or customized to the private commitment 'A la carte and made to measure'
NB : The Écrins National Park being a natural park, animals can be rare as well as numerous. We cannot guarantee their presence.
Alternating theoretical advice (Learn to see, Spot contrasts, Master the technique, Write with light, Seize the moment, Digital lab basics) and practice (shooting in the field).At the end of the day, debriefing of the images on the computer followed by exchanges around your results will help you to refine your look, compose your image, play with light, lines and colours.
