WHAT TYPE OF INSTRUCTION IS OFFERED?
Our tours are not workshops, with classroom instruction each day; rather, they are journeys of discovery that take you to great photographic locations with wonderful opportunities for informal, hands-on learning, that takes place through personal tutoring sessions, discussions around the dinner table, impromptu lectures or demonstrations, and while photographing in the field.
Each photo leader has years of experience in photographic education, and each has his or her own philosophy and style. They will help you see the world with new eyes, and create images that reflect your unique experience.

Head up from Dove Lake on the clifftop to Marion’s lookout we’ll capture superb panoramas of the lake with its views over Crater Lake, Dove Lake and Cradle Mountain. At the far end of the walk is a steep climb to Marion’s Lookout – on one section there are chains to help you up! We take our time, as we are a photographic tour there is no need to rush. The walk to Marion’s Lookout at Cradle Mountain is one of the highlights of our whole Tasmanian trip and offers up one of the best views in all of Cradle Mountain, certainly make it worth the effort.
Waterfall photography is the focus of the day!

A wonderfully relaxed day travelling in a comfortable vehicle along winding roads through the beautiful central highlands region of Tasmania. Reaching Mt. Field National Park, World Heritage Wilderness Area, we will visit and photograph the spectacular Russel Falls, Tasmania’s most picturesque and beautiful waterfall.
“moving water, when seen and heard we can feel the real, often profound connection to the raw primal power of nature.”
Our walk passes through towering swamp gums and species typical of wet forests and cool temperate rainforests such as dogwood, musk and myrtle. Closer to the falls the track is framed by stunning tall tree ferns.
