📸 PHOTOGRAPHY JOURNEY: TENERIFE 2027

Date: 7–15 January 2027

Capacity: Maximum 6 photographers + 2 instructors

Join us on a volcanic island where, within just a few hours, misty laurel forests give way to lava fields, black beaches and the snow-covered slopes of Mount Teide.

Tenerife in January is an island of contrasts — a lush and humid north, a dry and dramatic south, and Teide in the centre, creating its own weather.

This photography journey is designed for those who want to slow down, experience the landscape and look for strong, timeless images rather than simply collect postcard views.

🛠️ WHAT TO EXPECT & WHAT TO BRING

Style of the trip:

This is not a traditional workshop, but a shared photography journey with continuous discussion about technique, composition and filters.

Main photographic themes:

Soft diffused light in mist, long exposures of surf and lava pools, and minimalism in volcanic landscapes.

Recommended equipment:

Tripod, wide-angle lens and telephoto lens, ND filters (ideally ND64 and ND2000), and spare batteries.

Layered clothing is essential. Anaga can be damp and chilly, while Teide in January may bring frost and even snow. Sturdy hiking footwear is recommended.
