North Arizona Photography Tour (5D/4N) - tentative dates

Details

There are few places in the world that can compete with the beauty of Northern Arizona. The dramatic landscape which has gone through millions of years of transformation is a magnet for photographers. We have planned a five days and four nights photography tour to some of the most beautiful locations in this region.

The main locations that we will cover are:

Slot canyons - We will be photographing some of the world's most spectacular slot canyons. Light bouncing off these canyon walls results in an eclectic display of shapes and colors creating fantastic compositions.

Monument valley - One of the most majestic and most photographed points on Earth, this great valley boasts sandstone masterpieces that tower at heights of 400 to 1,000 feet

Lake Powell - Picturesque Lake Powell has 2000 miles of shoreline is an awesome sight at sunrise.

Horseshoe bend - One of the most photographed American landscapes where Colorado River makes a wide sweep around a sandstone escarpment.

White pocket (Vermillion cliffs national monument) - Often called Photographer's paradise, this is one of the most unusual and photogenic geologic formations in the region.

We will also visit some Hoodoos and some other rock formations

With focus on creativity and learning, this tour will help you refine your photography skills and create a strong portfolio from some of Arizona's most beautiful locations.
