Fotokamp @ Tolmin – report
July 15, 2010 by Luka
Last weekend I was running a photo camp at Labrca near Tolmin. We were photographing sporting activities such as whitewater rafting, mountain-biking, kayaking, mini rafts, and canyoning. To make a long story short;
- 8 photographers,
- 9 Nikon dslr cameras,
- more than 8.000 shots (good and bad ones
), - a lot of fun and laugh,
- very patient and cooperative models,
- excellent food,
- freezing water temperatures (which didn’t stop of from jumping into the river every day)
- hot sun, heavy downpours and morning mists
And here are some shots to get the feeling how it was;
Mountainbiking; a great opportunity to try some creative lightning.
Canyoning was the biggest challenge; stark contrasts, steep and slippery terrain and water everywhere. But we’ve got some great shots
Rafting was something I was really looking forward to. I tried with longer exposures and with panning and zooming out.
Mini rafts are great adventure as well!
Having a great and creative models is priceless!
Ok guys that was great, what shall we do next?
Everybody – get ready – here they come!
Some of us tried unconventional techniques.
Come on guys – we are ready – go! Its only 27m high!
Morning breakfast just few metres away from Soca river – how romantic!
Nidzo making worlds best cevapcici.
Eskimo turn – best seen in HD quality.
Tamara, Dusan, Sergeja, Martin, Katarina, Neja, Crt, Ivan – thank you joining me at Fotokamp! And a big thanks to Maya team, especially Borut, Klemen and Simon – you guys are great!
And for the rest of you guys who missed this opportunity – hope to see you next year!

I live in Colombia, South America. I am an amateur photographer with a taste for Colombia´s scenery, ordinary people in their daily lives, sunsets.
Is there a way to publish some of may pictures in your blog, so you may be able to show around places in this part of the world.?
Thank you,
