An outdoor photography primer to take your photography to the next level!
Jan 25, 26, 27 2019
Here is an intense photography workshop-tour among the magnificent ruins and boulder-strewn landscapes of Hampi. If there is one workshop-tour that will equip you with the most essential and important knowledge on making interesting and unique images in the outdoors, this would be it!
As one of the participants put it: “I attended the workshop without any skills of photography, the trip really helped me learn the techniques of photography. My passion for photography has reached a new level . I really enjoyed the trip and look forward to many more trips !”
Led and mentored by our master travel/outdoor photographer Arun Bhat, this tour helps you unfold the joys of outdoor photography, discover how to frame the magic of light, create images that come from your own unique perspectives and make impressions that last in the minds of your viewer.
This is one of our highly rated and most appreciated tours that is designed to maximize your three days in Hampi, both in terms of learning outdoor photography as well as in making many beautiful images at location.

Landscape Photography Workshop – Gokarna
Learn the art of outdoor and landscape photography.
At Gokarna on Feb 01 – 03, 2019
This might have happened to you: there is a magnificent scenery unfolding in front you; may be a golden sunset against the lapping waves of the ocean, perhaps a mountain bathed in morning colours or something so amazing that the words can’t describe. But when you press the shutter button and look into the camera screen, what you see is a tepid, disappointing rendition that makes you feel betrayed by the camera.
What is the missing link between beautiful landscapes and photographs of beautiful landscapes? This workshop is here to give you the answers, and enable you to make images that stand true to the beauty that your eyes have seen.
What’s more? Our mentor on this tour–Dinesh Maneer–hails from the region, has two photobooks from the region to his credit and is one of our most popular photography mentors.
Don’t take our word for it; read what one of the participants on this workshop had to say: “The workshop was great, a good mix of theory and practice and I enjoyed seeing the photos of the others in the group and of Dinesh especially as he always seemed to add another dimension to the same scenes we all tried to capture. The locations were all superb…”
This workshop is limited to just eight participants. Sign up instantly: Sky, Earth & Water – Landscape Photography Workshop – Gokarna
