Sequence

• We start every day at the agreed meeting point together as a group to the respective spots. Distances of up to 50 km are possible between the spots. It is therefore advisable to carpool.
• The selection of daily spots depends on the weather and can therefore change at short notice in order to get the best photo experience.
• Saturday will be a long day, so please expect little sleep.
• A good general physical condition is a prerequisite, as distances of more than an hour often have to be covered and these can also include stairs.a
  

All final information will be sent by email approximately 4 weeks before the start of the course.
