Photography: nature in detail in the Vroege Vogelbos

In 2026, Stad & Natuur organises a series of 4 photography workshops in collaboration with photographer Erwin Budding. As Almere is celebrating its 50th anniversary, we will photograph at different locations this year. The last one will take place on Sunday 13 December in the Vroege Vogelbos, from 10.00 to 12.30. We will take photos with our own mobile phones, so everyone can participate.

What will you do Discover the hidden beauty of nature in Almere with your smartphone. In this workshop, you will learn how to capture intriguing details. Unleash your creativity and discover how small elements can tell big stories.

All workshops start with a joint explanation at one of Stad & Natuur's locations, while enjoying a cup of coffee or tea. We go through the possibilities of your phone's camera. Then we will go outside in nature to work with mobile photography. Once back inside, we will briefly discuss photo editing. You can go a long way with this on your mobile phone, but you can also download a (free) app for this. The photographer will guide you in this during the workshop. At home you can put all the information into practice to master it all.

Prepared for the trip, make sure to:

- A charged phone - Enough memory on your phone - Possibly a lens/glasses cloth - Walking shoes and clothes - Fresh sense!

For whom: the workshops are for children from 8 years onwards, they must have access to a mobile phone during this workshop. The workshop is also for young people, adults and the elderly. There is something new for everyone to learn. The workshop is especially suitable for the novice mobile phone photographer.

Please note: reserve a ticket for each participant!
