Madzharovo is a stunning region teeming with birdlife, making it a prime location for wildlife photography.
The area’s hide offers an excellent opportunity to capture vultures and other significant bird species up close. Beyond birds, lucky visitors may also spot golden jackals, foxes, and other mammals.
Hide photography allows photographers to observe and photograph animals without disturbing them, resulting in natural and striking images.
We will capture stunning images both from the hide.
I’ll be there to guide you in achieving unique shots, offering expert advice on camera settings and photography techniques. Our experience will extend beyond photography, as we’ll also dive into post-processing using Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, and Luminar.
Additionally, I will provide insights into video shooting techniques and post-production editing in DaVinci Resolve.
I’ll demonstrate essential methods and settings while offering hands-on support in the field.
