Maria hosts Far-East photo workshop

"Staying at Lembeh Cottages Resort & Spa for the first seven nights, Maria will help beginners and more advanced compact camera users master the art of capturing magical macro subjects with daily informal presentations to help make the most of the photographic opportunities in this world-famous area," says Eco Divers.

Slideshows of guests' photos will be shown nightly in the lounge, and there will also be help with Lightroom and Photoshop techniques.

"Moving on to Kima Bajo Resort & Spa for five nights, guests will "take in the spectacular walls and marine life of Bunaken Marine Park. Wide-angle techniques and lighting will be explored to take compact camera skills to a higher level and help to develop techniques to capture a wide range of subjects."   

Priced at US$2745 per person, the package includes: 10 days' diving (6 in Lembeh, 4 in Manado), with up to 3 guided dives per day; breakfast, lunch & dinner; a copy of Maria's book; transfers and taxes; but not flights.
