Ladakh Photo Workshop - 2 September 2014

Starting on the 2nd September 2014 I  will be running a 12 day photography workshop and tour in Ladakh - Indian Himalaya. 

This remote part of North India has one of the most unique and beautiful landscapes in the world, where Tibetan Buddhist culture flourishes. It offers distinctive opportunities for photographers interested in travel and landscape photography.

The workshop was designed with the photographer in mind and is for a beginner and those with some experience. It's a good mix of a cultural experience and seeing natural landscapes. It will begin at the basics of photography and how to use a DSLR camera.

The technical aspects of capturing great image will be covered along with how to develop your eye and make pictures your own. This is something Neil is very passionate about - developing your creative aspects of photography.

Come and share the adventure together in this visual journey and discover the unique landscape, light and culture of Ladakh through your own eyes.

100-year-old negatives have been discovered in Antarctic. They where in a small box of 22 exposed but unprocessed photographic negatives, frozen in a solid block of ice for nearly one hundred years. The Box was  one of the many supply depots Robert Falcon Scott established for his doomed Terre Nova Expedition to the South Pole (1910-1913).

The hut was used next by the Ross Sea Party of Sir Ernest Shackleton's 1914-1917 Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. It is believed that this party left the undeveloped negatives.

What an incredible story!

I have come across some fascinating old photographs recently. Here are some 3d photos for WWI. They where found in a  verascope camera which was owned by the French Army. Captured a moment in history in quite an astonishing way.
