Experience the beauty of Bhutan with award-winning photographer Michael Turek, whilst staying at sister hotels, COMO Uma Paro and COMO Uma Punakha - voted first-and second-best in Asia by Condé Nast Traveler magazine.
Slow down, and engage in the present moment, through the lens of a film camera, and with the guidance of Michael Turek, a highly regarded British-American photographer and Kodak Ambassador. In partnership with Natural World Safaris, Michael will be conducting this course with a specially-designed 'Eight-Day Photography Expedition' itinerary. This will take you along winding rivers to sacred monasteries and temples that cling to sheer cliffs faces. You will enjoy spectacular drives through mountain passes. The magic light of Bhutan will come alive on treks along forest trails lined with fluttering prayer flags.
Michael will be sharing his methods of shooting on film — a medium that encourages photographers to be present in the moment, and to capture their surroundings with deliberation and intention. By slowing down with film, participants will enjoy a deeper and more thoughtful observation of nature and discover a deeper level of engagement with the Bhutanese people. The result being more intimate visual illustrations of your experience in this unique country.
