It is our pleasure to announce that you can now apply for the 9th Photo workshop, to be held during Summer in the uncontaminated Croatian island of SESTRUNJ, near ZADAR.
The course is directed to every expert or beginner, wishing to improve his or her skills in digital  photography, as well as to learn tips and tricks about digital techniques, photoshop, outdoor and underwater shooting. Furthermore, the course aims at helping participants to produce a complete, personal photography portfolio.

Our goal is to build a mixed working group, combining the skills of each participant, and create a common ground for personal growth and development.

No man is an island unto himself… but an island is just the ideal environment to be "away from it all" and unwind. Tranquillity, peace, few inhabitants and plenty of nature: that is what you can expect in Sestrunj.

The workshop will focus in particular on digital, daily photographic work, which  covers everything from getting ready to take photos to storing, organizing, managing and editing your images.The course is designed to show you how to use your computer and photo editing software to capture, edit, manipulate and produce top quality digital photgraphy images for both the Internet and printing. It's easier than you think with our in-depth lessons.

Every participant should bring his or her own digital SLR reflex camera and notebook(if possible).

The course covers following subjects:

* Capturing your digital Digital image
* Digital Cameras
* Digital Scanners
* Processing your digital image
* Using Layers
* Filters
* Digital Image Manipulaton
*Use of the digital camera; general introduction to image processing software (Photoshop, Ligthroom, etc..)

*Lightning methods: natural and artificial light

*Theoretical aspects and photography techniques

*Visual perception, picture reading with reference to History of Art and Photography

* Presentation and more...

At the same time, the course is also intended to be a holiday, where everybody contributes to creating a friendly and relaxing atmosphere.  Finally, on the last evening, a small photographic exhibition will be set up in the village centre, displaying  shots taken during the week.
At the end of courses, once back in Italy, Bologna will be hosting a retrospective exhibition in a dedicated space.

Every photo workshop is intended for only TEN PEOPLE at a time. Participants will arrive in Zadar on Saturday morning, and will stay until dawn of following Friday.
