Indonesia

Workshop Description:

A payment plan is available for this workshop. See below.

Indonesia offers a photography route designed to awaken creativity and capture memorable images in unique landscapes. The adventure begins at Pura Segara Ulun Danu Batur, where the floating temples on the lake at sunrise create a mystical setting perfect for landscape and architectural photography. Next, we visit Ulun Beratan Temple, where golden light reflects on the water among the mountains, followed by Banyuwangi Waterfall, where a Legong dancer blends with nature, creating scenes full of strength and delicacy. We will explore Djawatan Forest, combining nature and portrait photography to enhance visual storytelling, and visit Tumpak Sewu Waterfall and Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, capturing sunrise, sunset, and night photography in volcanic landscapes. The route includes flights to Bali and Tambolaka, visits to the Rateggaro community, beaches like Watu Malandong and Walakiri Beach, and waterfalls such as Waicakura, offering light, movement, and textures that ensure authentic, story-rich images.
