About This Course

Every landscape holds more than one photograph. A change in position can reveal a leading line, a closer look can uncover an unexpected detail, and shifting light or weather can transform the atmosphere of a familiar place. The challenge is not simply to find a beautiful view, but to recognise what makes the moment worth capturing.

 

Professional landscape photographer Albert Dros guides you through this creative process, from composition and colour to location planning, changing conditions, gear selection, and decisions in the field. Discover how foregrounds, leading lines, reflections, layers, and visual balance can bring depth and atmosphere to an image.

 

Through practical shoots among trees and along the Dutch coast, you will see how lenses, filters, camera settings, shutter speeds, and perspectives can create different interpretations of the same landscape. Albert demonstrates how he works with changing weather, focus, and exposure to express both the movement and stillness of nature.

 

By learning to slow down, observe more closely, and respond creatively to your surroundings, you will discover new possibilities in every location. This course will help you photograph landscapes with greater awareness and intention, creating images that convey the atmosphere, beauty, and feeling of being there.

Instructor

A professional since 2012, Albert’s work can be described as vibrant, colourful with a hint of fairytale. His landscapes have often been described as having a ‘Lord Of The Rings’ quality to them while his cityscapes are crystal clear and sharp. As a perfectionist he always tries to capture a certain moment or scene in the best possible way, spending time to get the shot he wants. He calls himself a ‘modern’ photographer and loves new technology, always trying to keep up with innovations. That’s where he says Sony is a complete fit for his ethos and personality. His work has been featured in Time, National Geographic and the Huffington Post and his projects range from pure landscape work to artistic abstract approaches in which he is trying different things with photography. He believes it important to have no boundaries in expressing an artistic vision.
