Day 1 – Arrival to Ireland and drive to County Kerry, Killarney
Individual travel to Dublin. We will meet you at Dublin Airport during the morning. Then we will drive southwest to County Kerry. You will stay in Killarney for the first three nights.
The region around the bustling city of Killarney is a paradise for photography and nature lovers. Look forward to wild and rugged landscapes with magnificent forests, idyllic lakes and rushing waterfalls. In addition to landscape photography, we also keep an eye out for deer. With a bit of luck, you can already capture your first wildlife pictures.
We will arrange the exact day program at short notice on site, in order to be able to respond to the respective weather and light conditions. We also take into account where the deer are at the moment when planning at short notice. Deer are mostly active mainly during sunrise and sunset.
Due to the small group size we can optimally respond to your individual needs and discuss photographic topics of your choice and put them into practice immediately (e.g. long time exposures, use of filters, animals in bad light conditions etc.). If required, we will also have time for image reviews or tutorials on image editing.
