Your photography guidance is hands-on training as you're shooting which is the way I learned how to do it 40 years ago. You'll see the photo before you take it and if you're wondering how to compose a shot, choose an angle, and identify your light then this is your workshop.
You'll explore the true gems of Palermo:
Market Ballero, this is the premiere food market of the world and I'm not kidding, don't eat anything before coming here, why? You have to taste the fried squash flowers, fresh seafood, and mouth-watering bread and cheese. Yum! This market is a thrilling adventure; taking photos of food and people.
Historic architecture and marble fountains:
You'll photograph the famous fountain that was carved in Florence and then cut into pieces, put on a ship that sailed to Sicily, and reassembled in Palermo. This is a masterpiece carved from Carrera marble, from the same quarry Michelangelo used for David.
And then we'll take the train to Cefalu, a seaside foodie town that will enchant you with its huge chunk of rock and a church on top, beach walks, spectacular sunsets, and delicious food and wine.
Gems I've discovered: a secret wine sanctuary over the sea, an inviting beach with a convent on it, and a stunning piazza in the center of town. The sunsets will melt you in bliss, I promise.
Here's what Shirley McClintock, a participant in my Sicily workshop pre-pandemic has to say about it:
"Your real talent is the care you bring to everyone you meet. You have a special sparkle that most people don’t have."
Every meal and photowalk is carefully curated to dazzle you!
