Guide Review - Photography Tour
One good thing about taking a photography workshop trip in Greece - you'll not only probably have a great trip, your photos will actually look great, too. That's not as easy as it sounds in bright, high-contast Greece, where even expert photographers may overexpose the blazingly white traditional buildings gleaming against the wine-dark seas.And it's not all work, either. "Night photography is encouraged, but balanced with nocturnal explorations of the kafenions and tavernas." And sometimes, especially in the Internet age, you don't want photos of every one of those nocturnal explorations.
