About this class
The town of Ilsenburg and the Ilse Valley are a wonderful piece of land... and are always worth a visit for (aspiring) landscape photographers! Our Ilsenburg and Ilsetal photo hike will first focus on the exciting topic of long exposures! We want to finally “freeze” Ilse's water ourselves, turn it milky white.
We all know examples of this type of landscape photography; in the Ilse Valley, we find a beautiful little mountain stream where we can practice this technique. It's a lot of fun and great photos guaranteed.

What you’ll do in the class
In the first part of the workshop, we go up the Ilse to about the Ilse Falls. On the way, we find small spots everywhere on both sides of the Ilse for our long exposures... and of course there are also many motifs for nature and landscape photos next to the mountain stream.
Back in Ilsenburg, I would like to go to the monastery with you and explore the town a bit myself. Because the town also offers us all sorts of nice photo opportunities. On the way, we will agree on the division between Ilse and Ilsenburg. And of course, we also take breaks as needed.
Who is the class suitable for?
The Ilsenburg and Ilsetal photo tour with the Fotoschule Hannover is intended for participants who want to deepen their knowledge of camera operation and image design in a very practical way and with great subjects.
