<\/p>\nA photography workshop customized by international award winning photographer William Chua for photographers\u2026<\/p>\n
Having travelled to Finland and Norway for landscapes and aurora sightings.. and a successful Norway workshop
\nin March 2013, William has decided to return to Finland with fellow photography hobbyists to witness the aurora for themselves
\nThis is likely the last chance to see the Northern lights at its Peak, other than that it will be 11 years before they get to this intensity.
\nAnd Finland is one of the best places to witness this natural phenomenon<\/p>\n
Of course, sightings are never guaranteed, but our esteemed partners in Finland will ensure that
\nwe will chase the lights late into the night to ensure a great experience for you<\/p>\n
Besides the aurora, what trip to the Arctic will be without the husky rides ?
\nWe will travel into the wilderness with our huskies for a unique experience and
\nphotography opportunities<\/p>\n
William will guide the participants along for photography and there will also be critic sesssions
\nto help participants improve on their photos. A briefing will be done prior to the trip.<\/p>\n
Workshop is open to participants from Beginner to any level
\nHowever, participants must be prepared for shooting late into the nite or even the early mornings<\/p>\n
