Photography Course in Norway! ๐Ÿ“ธ Learn everyth Photography Course in Norway! ๐Ÿ“ธ 

Learn everything about how to make the perfect photograph during our photography course trip in Norway! 

Have you always wanted to get everything out of your SLR camera while being on an epic roadtrip? Then join us on this photography trip and learn how to work your camera like a pro in one of most photogenic countries in the world; Norway! 

We'll go to fjords, get amazed by the photogenic views on the hike in National Park Hardangervidda, we'll visit canyons and see Norway's highest waterfall from up close. We set up camp in various places around the Bergen area. Where would you rather learn how to master your camera? Here there's always something pretty to photograph.

Jurjen Rozeboom, a professional outdoor sports photographer, teaches you everything about your camera, your settings, choosing the right frames and playing with light, shutter speeds and apertures.

During the week you will receive several photography assignments, in the evening we will evaluate them and you will receive hands on tips to continue with. This trip combines the adventure of traveling with La Karavana with learning a new skill. 

๐Ÿ‘‰ WHEN:  June 21st - 28th, 2022

Prefer to just join on another Bergen-trip instead? No problem, we still have some availability on trip 2: 12-19th of June!
