Landscape Photography
Landscape photography is the art of capturing the beauty and essence of natural landscapes, emphasizing wide-ranging vistas and scenic locations. It aims to convey the grandeur and unique characteristics of the environment through composition, lighting, and timing.
Join us on an extraordinary tour that promises a once-in-a-lifetime experience of witnessing a breathtaking sunrise on the Andaman Sea, all while comfortably aboard a traditional long-tail boat. We embark on this journey before daybreak, departing from the east coast of Phuket between 5-6 am. Our first destination awaits, and if fortune smiles upon us, we will be greeted by a mesmerizing sunrise that sets the tone for an adventurous day of photography.
Following our initial photography session, we will explore either a pristine sand bar or a small island in Phang Nga Bay, depending on the tide schedule. These locations boast awe-inspiring viewpoints, offering panoramic vistas of some of the most magnificent scenery in the Kingdom of Thailand. Please note that reaching the viewpoint requires a 15-20 minute climb through the jungle, guided by ropes and navigating over roots and rocks. For this hike, it is essential to wear closed-toe shoes or sports sandals and possess a moderate level of physical fitness. However, if climbing is not your preference, fear not! The stunning shoreline surrounding the area will provide ample opportunities to enjoy the picturesque beauty while others venture upwards.
Upon returning from the viewpoint, we will make our way to a local restaurant on Koh Yao Noi, where a delicious breakfast will be served around 9:30 am. With newfound energy, we will reboard our boat and leisurely continue our journey north for the next three hours, always on the lookout for prime photographic opportunities.
Around 12:30 pm, we will commence our return journey to Phuket, during which you can unwind and reflect upon the day's incredible encounters. Enjoy a refreshing beverage while sharing your favorite images with fellow participants, creating lasting memories. The tour concludes with your transfer back to your hotel, scheduled for approximately 2:00 pm.
Don't miss this chance to capture an unforgettable sunrise, explore stunning locations, and immerse yourself in the beauty of Thailand's coastal wonders. Join us on this remarkable adventure for a day filled with extraordinary photography opportunities.
