Digital Photography courses with Phil Simha
"A good picture doesn't need a subtitle to tell a story"
During three exceptional voyages in Galapagos, Maldives and Egypt, Abyss is pleased to propose digital photography courses for beginners through to the experienced photographer. A unique opportunity to combine your passion for travel and underwater photography.
The Galapagos Islands : Expert Course : A cruise through the UNESCO classified archipelago, perfect for working on lighting, differing atmospheres and pelagic fauna which is permanently present. Your main goal will be to stay focused on your shots with such abundant marine life present !
The Red Sea in Egypt: Beginners Course : A cruise St John's Reef in the Red Sea, ideal for perfecting coral photography and that of the permanently present fish life, but also to work on lighting and stability.
The Maldives :
Courses of all levels :
a classic cruise to North Male, South Male and the Ari Atoll. The variety of species and underwater topography will allow you to work on both macro and wide angle shots. In the sometimes quite active currents of the Maldivian waters, you will also be able to perfect your buoyancy and improve your photographic techniques.
Phil Simha, trainer, journalist and photographer will present daily sessions for photographers of all levels. From compact to professional cameras, the themes presented will be adapted based on the level of the participants. Discussions, presentations and practice will all form part of the course.
