Description
During the photo walk, you will explore the city with an experienced photographer. You will receive tips and tricks on camera settings and perspectives and visit well-known and lesser-known places.
Are you visiting Cologne and want to photograph the city's iconic landmarks, such as Cologne Cathedral, the Kranhäuser, the old town, and more, in the best light? Or would you like to learn how to take better pictures? During the photo walk, the photographer takes plenty of time to explain things and always adapts the level to the needs of the visitors.
Whether it's the basic rules of photography or, for advanced photographers, technical details and image composition, the photo walk will definitely expand your photographic and creative skills, and you'll come home with lots of beautiful pictures.
We start in Cologne's old town, walk through the Rheinauhafen, cross the Severinsbrücke with its magnificent view of the skyline, and end at the Hohenzollernbrücke with a view of the cathedral and skyline—perfect for long exposures and creative perspectives.
The walk is much less of a city tour and more of a targeted tour of some well-known and lesser-known photo spots—the focus here is on photography. Whether you come with a DSLR, mirrorless camera, or smartphone, the main thing is that you want to take pictures with atmosphere.
