Intro to my Photography Workshop in Tuscany

A photographic workshop in Tuscany to have images of unforgettable landscapes and wonderful cities. In fact, the region is certainly among the most beautiful in Italy. For this reason it is very difficult to choose where to start photographing Tuscany. From the enchanting gothic majesty of Siena or from the historical rival of Florence. In any case, moving away from the large urban centers, you will encounter another equally fascinating Tuscany, with centuries-old villages perched on green hills and churches located in the most remote places. So having a lot of opportunities to photograph, I made different itineraries and photographic tours. Below I put several destinations of my photography workshop in Tuscany. So, my advice is to start understanding what your desire and subject to photograph is and then choose your itinerary.

When Photograph Tuscany

The best time to visit Tuscany is the low season is from April to June and September to November. In this time the light is at the best and you can get really amazing colors a t the golden hours. Also the weather is generally nice, the prices are lower and there are fewer tourists. Instead is better to avoid the end of July and August, because it is very hot and the light is strong., Another months to consider are in winter is generally quite cold in the whole region, more than you normally imagine. You can find interesting weather condition to capture. Particularly the hilly areas of the hinterland, such as those of Siena and Cortona, can be cover by fogs.
