In collaboration with photographer Jacqueline Jellema, we are offering this photography workshop from the water 3 to 4 times this boating season.

The workshop will be held on Friday, May 12, and Friday, June 2, for beginners with DSLR or mirrorless cameras
What does the day look like?
We gather at Lunegat Marina in Dokkumer Nieuwe Zijlen. Here, the classic Norwegian sloop Jort from Varen met Sil awaits us. The sloop was built in 1946 in Grimstad.
After a brief briefing from the skipper and photographer Jacqueline, it’s time to prepare “Jort” for departure. Besides photography, today we can also learn the basics of sailing.
Cast off, and we sail out of the harbor. Depending on the weather, we may head towards Dokkum, Kollum, or the Lauwersmeer. Along the way, there’s plenty to see. Will you spot the sea eagle on the Lauwersmeer or capture the perfect shot of the windmills of Dokkum? Sign up today for this awesome workshop.
