THE DARK NIGHT CONTRAST WITH THE POOLS OF WATER WHERE THESE AMAZING CREATURES BREED. AMONG DUNES AND VEGETATION, WE WILL TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS LYING ON THE GROUND TRYING TO BE IMMERSED IN THE SECRET WORLD OF AMPHIBIANS.
The Mindelo Reserve is a biodiversity sanctuary, where we can observe several species of frogs, toads, newts and salamanders. In this photographic trip we will explore the different habitats of the reserve in search of different species. Participants will learn macro photography and lighting techniques, essential for capturing the intricate details and vibrant colors of amphibians. Additionally, ethical photography practices will be taught to minimize the impact on animals and their habitats. This program is ideal for those who want to deepen their knowledge about amphibians and improve their photographic technique in a natural environment.

Experience Level
Everyone is welcome, although the tour is aimed at photographers with reflex cameras (with or without a mirror) and telephoto lenses, with experience in wildlife photography. I recommend that you have some familiarity with your camera, as I don't know all the existing models and you may have to change some settings to try a new technique.
Before departure, in the briefing and during the walk, you will have the opportunity to discuss the settings, I will give you several tips to make the most of the tour and you are free to ask any questions.
