This 2-day workshop will take place in November 2025, in the middle of the autumn season, it will allow you to capture the essence of the typical colors of this fantastic season in the Emilian woods accompanied, guided and instructed by the professional photographer Alessandro from Modica. During the workshop there will be a theoretical lesson on photography, a post-production lesson, and two photographic sessions in the field, where we will visit the beautiful Corno Alle Scale Regional Park. Autumn is certainly one of the most colorful seasons and full of morning mists, and if we are lucky we will find these fantastic conditions in the scenarios we visit. The landscapes change completely, surrounded by thick layers of fog, waterfalls full of water that make these places even more mystical.

WHO IS THIS EVENT ADDRESSED TO?

This workshop is aimed at all photography and nature enthusiasts. Dedicated both to those who are taking their first steps in this wonderful world and want to receive some useful advice in the field and in post production to improve their knowledge, and to more advanced photographers, who wish to spend two days in places full of photographic possibilities, leading to home great shots. No particular skills are required.

During the workshop you will learn all the aspects related to targeted waterfall photography, starting from planning to the shooting phase, up to post-production.

We will immerse ourselves in a wild world, far from the chaos of the cities and everyday habits, ideal places to reconcile with nature and enjoy all the beauties that these places have to offer us. The Corno Alle Scale Regional Park in autumn is a real explosion of colours. The woods color the valleys and slopes, and the abundant water branches out into rivers and streams. The waterfalls with the strangest shapes and sizes, break the deafening silence of the forest, and the smell of autumn within the environment is very strong. The passion for waterfalls pushes me to find new ones every day, but this area, although not close, has truly given me great satisfaction both on a photographic and personal level. For this reason, after having visited them several times, I decided to share them with you by organizing this workshop, in full respect of nature.
