The great new friends I made. The relaxed approach, and having breakout groups for photography. Oh, and of course, the food, hosts, wonderful location, and Prosecco!
I enjoyed the excursions, meeting the other people on the course, having breakfast outside looking at the lovely view and learning more about photography.
The locations that we visited were beautiful. Patrick was extremely help full and if you showed enthusiasm he went the extra mile to help and look for the ideal location.
