Photographic Workshop – Torres del Paine
Paine National Park is a paradise for photographers and nature lovers: the fauna, flora and landscapes are unique.
The trip is limited to 8 people and open to anyone who has a passion for photography. It is designed to allow everyone quality time at some fabulous locations, with accommodation, food and logistics all taken care of.
Our photographic safari takes in some of the highlights of Paine including the Grey glacier, the vivid blue and green Lago Pehoe, and the superb views over the Towers and Horns, central to the massif.
Days spent in the park will be filled with breathtaking views of rock spires, snow covered peaks, shimmering glaciers, jewel coloured lakes and sun scorched grasslands dotted with wildflowers. Wildlife abounds here and you share the trail with guanacos, Darwin’s rhea, condors, Chilean flamingos, fox, buff-necked ibis, swans, geese, woodpeckers and even once in a while the elusive South American puma.
The photography sessions will be led by Bruce Percy. Bruce is an internationally-travelled and published photographer who also contributes articles to the Outdoor Photography magazine. He has visited and photographed Patagonia many times and has the knowledge to help you make the most of this photographic safari.
To see what you could achieve, have a look at the photos of Niall Connaughton who went on our November 2007 photo safari in Paine.
Check our Books and Maps section where you will find a range of literature to help you get the most out of your South American adventure.
