Bird

WORKSHOPS
These specific tours were designed to experience and photograph certain bird related special events of the Carpathian Basin. This is also a social event for the participating photographers, since with the help of a professional photographer they analyse the taken pictures and can listen to lectures in the evenings. During the tour we use our superb network of nature inbuilt hides and take pictures by stalking as well as at various, carefully selected locations (scenery shots). These social events, however, will not be organised at the cost of your photography time, which will be maximized to allow a full exploration of the subject. These tours were elaborated to photograph a selected ‘subject’ in a certain period so we usually devote most of our time to archive this. We usually run just a few of these Workshops annually. Please browse through our Workshop photo tours offer with dates and select the one you like!
