Photographing the Magic &
Beauty of Ireland’s South
Andrea Wallace & Emily Fannon
Skill Level: Open to all
CONCEPT: The wild and rugged terrain that is
Kerry has been enjoyed for centuries. Join us
on this eight-day field expedition as we explore
the Dingle, Iveragh and Beara Peninsulas from
a centrally-located country estate near Killorglin.
Our flexible itinerary includes visiting hidden
beaches and spectacular cliffs along the shore,
peaceful lakes hidden away in national forests,
mysterious ruins left behind by ancient cultures
and vibrant villages where the Irish heritage
comes alive. Each location presents the opportunity for inspired image-making.
We use digital cameras to capture the rugged landscape, lively culture and rich history
of county Kerry in southern Ireland. Our group
will have daily field trips for shooting on location at various times of day. We discuss: making the best use of digital photography equipment, including how to make a good exposure;
various shooting techniques; using a tripod; the
principles of good composition and capturing a
panorama. When not shooting, we gather as
a group to discuss the successes and failures
of our image-making, producing the digital panorama and how to use raw capture with Adobe
Lightroom and Photoshop, to digitally produce
the image you see in your mind.
