Why Take a Photo Seminar at Sea?
- Practice your photographic skills or rekindle your interest in photography
- Learn with others in a relaxed and entertaining environment
- Use your new skills while photographing some of the most spectacular scenery in North America
- Develop the technical skills to get the most out of your camera
- Discover your own visual style while creating images that you will be proud to show off once you are home
Our Ports of Call:
Glacier Bay
Glacier Bay Scenery
One of our sea days will be spent in spectacular Glacier Bay where only a few cruise ships are allowed to visit every year. This is a protected national park and preserve where you are likely to see sea life and will have the chance to visit several glaciers up close as our captain brings our ship near the face of these magnificent mountains of ice.
Ketchikan
Creek Street, Ketchikan
If you are looking for totem poles, Ketchikan is a great place to see them. Both Totem Bight State Historic Park and the Saxman Native Village have collections of well preserved poles for you to marvel at. Creek Street is not to be missed either. A remnant of earlier times, the shops and boutiques are built out over Ketchikan Creek and give a sense of what Ketchikan was like in the early twentieth century.
Skagway
WPYR Rail Cars
The gateway to the Klondike Gold Rush, Skagway is still the southern terminus of the White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad which will take you on a journey to retrace the route once taken to reach the gold fields. The rail cars will be waiting right beside our ship to take you the twenty miles up to the White Pass Summit and then return you back to your ship.
Juneau
Auke Bay, Juneau. Navigation Buoy and Sea Lions.
Juneau, the capital of Alaska, is a great place to go whale watching in the protected waters of Auke Bay, just outside the city. The sea lions will probably be resting on the navigation buoy in the bay and you will often sail past the old lighthouse at Retreat Point while looking for whales. Juneau is also the only American city to have a glacier within its city limits, which makes it easy to visit on your way to or from your whale watching expedition.
Island Princess
Central Grand Atrium
Your spectacular home away from home is the beautiful Island Princess. Her luxurious interior will make it hard to remember you are at sea on a ship. With 1970 passengers, Island Princess is more intimate than the large mega-ships which can hold over 5400 passengers. You will have a number of dining options and some great entertainment on board. Visit this site to learn more about the amenities on board Island Princess.
Your Photo Seminar
Our photo seminars will help you learn more about your digital camera while you discover techniques to improve your photos and ability to tell stories through your images. You will return not only with memories of the beautiful Alaskan wilderness but also interesting pictures to share with friends and family.
