This Photo Expedition also includes discussions and demonstrations of digital camera settings, accurate metering and exposure, the rules of composition, the secrets to approach strangers and getting close to make high impact visual pictures and a creative use of light. Other important topics explored in this digital photography workshop will be the editing, the selection and sequencing, the story development. This photographic week was designed to offer its participants a true photographic experience to become better photographers and visual storytellers, working to a real project and getting international exposure thanks to the publication in the book.
