Discovering Mafia Island and the Indian Ocean, admiring the underwater treasures of Chole Bay, meeting the impressive whale sharks and participating in a 6-day underwater photography course in the company of Cristian Umili.
The course programme has been designed so that individual topics can be explored in depth on a theoretical level and then applied later during the dives, all designed for fast and fun learning, while also leaving room for photographing the beautiful island on the surface and making emotionally charged encounters. The dives will be organised for underwater photographers and their needs, in order to be able to shoot calmly but also to obtain top-notch images. We will delve into macro photography thanks to the nudibranches we will find on the Mafia seabed, environmental photography thanks to the beautiful coral reef, we will have fun photographing animals hunting at night, but above all we will photograph whale sharks. We will also carve out time to delve into the development of photographs taken using Lightroom and similar programmes, as it is an integral part of the creative process.
