Workshop: Westduinpark sunrise walk
Sunrise walk workshop
How many times have you thought to go see the sun rise at the coast? Here’s your incentive to go — and capture it like never before!
Intro
Ask any photographer what the best time for photography is and they’ll probably tell you it’s golden hour. You might hear ‘last light of the day’ when hearing that, but did you know the first light of the day, just after sunrise, is also golden hour? It might even trump sunset for a magical photography experience!
In this workshop, you’ll experience the magic of an early morning at the coast and learn to capture it like never before! We’ll go over the basics of planning a(n early) walk in nature and challenge you to push your skills with different photography challenges.

FAQs

We start with short introductions and exploring the city! Mid-walk we will have a tea and coffee break, do some more photography and exploring and wrap it up with a drink on Plein (optional). Before and after the workshop, you'll be added to a WhatsApp group chat with the others to share your work.

Ideally, bring a camera that allows you to change settings, like a DSLR or a mirrorless camera. If you don’t have one, a compact camera or smartphone will work. For those using interchangeable lenses, anything between wide and short telephoto is suitable for city photography. Our advice is to not bring too much equipment, as it can become cumbersome.
-
An outfit and shoes you’ll be comfortable in walking around for a few hours. Layers always work well. A small snack and a bottle water might be nice. We’ll also have a break for coffee or tea, which is included.
