The beautiful city of Porto hardly needs an introduction. The second largest Portuguese city lies on the banks of the Douro River and it is a UNESCO World Heritage site.
The most characteristic views of the city, including the Ribeira district with its ancient houses, and the famous Dom Luis steel bridge can be seen from the low lying shores of the Douro. Here you also find the traditional barges carrying barrels of the local port. This creates many photographic possibilities which we will be photographing at sunrise and sunset.
During our 1-day workshop (private or group) you will have the possibility to create appealing images using various techniques such as long exposure and blue hour photography. Participants will also have the opportunity to use various filters that will be provided.
