Photography workshop E1: Lapland

This trip will allow you to discover the northernmost region of Finland, located north of the Arctic Circle, with its immense expanses of wilderness, vast forests, and mountains of varying heights. In addition to viewing these breathtakingly beautiful landscapes, these spaces covered in snow for most of the year, it will also be an opportunity to visit reindeer farms, go on dog sledding excursions, or enjoy the benefits of a real Finnish sauna. One of the other highlights of this trip will be hunting for the Northern Lights. The period from December to March provides the best conditions for observing these phenomena, caused by the collision between particles emitted by the Sun and the Earth's atmosphere. We will fully enjoy the magic of this enchanting spectacle, combining a whole range of colors that shine in the sky. The majority of them are red or green, and more rarely pink, blue, or purple.
