This
will be a photographer's dream. Acres of wild flowers with Mont
Blanc as a backdrop. Discover wild orchids, meadows of alpine
flowers undisturbed by man. Taste wild strawberries as we walk
through some of the loveliest scenery imaginable. All this when
there are few tourists and the walks are easy and sheltered. Photograph
Mont Blanc with the pink hue of the setting sun.
"The course on photographing wild flowers with Lucilla Phelps
FRPS was a great opportunity to pick up some hints and tips from
a Society Fellow, while walking up mountains and in alpine meadows,
with all the fresh air and healthy exercise that implies. Summer
in the Alps is spectacular, with its mountain meadows filled with
wild flowers, butterflies, and cows. The weather is mild and warm,
with brilliant blue skies and clear starry nights" David
