Landscape photography is not my favorite genre but I decided to do a workshop to force myself out of my comfort zone. Attracted by Paulo Silva's photographs, I signed up for the “Porto e Aveiro” workshop. I could hardly have made a better choice. The locations were perfect, alternating between the unavoidable and the lesser-known corners. Paulo, in addition to being a great photographer and an impeccable professional, was always available to help and stimulate us, and did not rest until all the elements of the group had taken “A” photograph in each spot. Landscape photography is still not the one that touches me the most, but when I do another workshop - and I will - it will be with Paulo again.
