Workshop Notes 1. Program Description Aimed at recreational & travel photographers who wish to learn Yannis’s style of getting behind the facade of a travel destination to capture on film or digital the landscape, light, people images of Crete, one of the most charming and popular destinations in Greece.

2. Location Description The historic Venetian town of Hania & Western Crete & its landscapes, culture & peoples The city or Heraclion, Knossos. Several noteworthy villages and areas inside the Island.

Crete Called by the Greeks themselves ‘The Great Island’, Crete is a remarkably special place, an area of outstanding natural beauty, imbued with a strong sense of history. Western Crete is able to astound the photographer even more than other parts of the island. Chania, the area’s capital, has the most picturesque harbour in Greece, backed by a labyrinth of Venetian and Turkish alleyways winding down to the waterfront. There are Minoan remains, Turkish mosques and minarets, and at every turn, fascinating glimpses of the city’s 16th century walls, impressive ramparts, bastions, archways, and domes.

The capital of the Chania Province, our “base camp” city will amaze the photographer more than other parts of the island. Chania Town, with its labyrinth of Venetian and Turkish alleyways, has the most picturesque harbour in Greece.

Join photographer, art director and native Greek Yannis Souris and explore the many hidden facets of this fascinating area. From Minoan burial chambers, to a carpet weaver at work on his 400 years old family loom. Glimpse some of the traditional villages untouched by time, surrounded by the rugged White Mountains, wander around quaint mediaeval backstreets and alleyways.
