Der FotoKurs "St. Peter-Ording – auf die feine ART" bietet einen hervorragenden Einblick in die minimalistische Fotografie. Die weiten Sandstrände, markanten Pfahlbauten und zahlreichen Details liefern vielfältige Motive für diese Kunstform. Philipp führt die Teilnehmenden kompetent in das Thema ein und steht während des Fotografierens mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Er legt besonderen Wert auf die individuelle Weiterentwicklung der fotografischen Fähigkeiten. Im Seminarraum werden die Fotos mit Lightroom optimiert, wobei Philipp sein fundiertes Wissen einbringt. Die Besprechung der Bilder im Plenum ist äußerst bereichernd und erweitert den Blickwinkel auf verschiedene Perspektiven. Der Kurs ist perfekt organisiert: die Reise mit Nachtzug / Mietauto und die komfortable Unterkunft mit exzellenter Verpflegung. Es ist für alles gesorgt, die Teilnehmenden müssen sich um nichts kümmern. Für alle, die ihre fotografischen Fähigkeiten verbessern möchten, ist auch dieser Kurs absolut empfehlenswert.
