  ...The Art of Photography, with Jim Maitre
   Heli Outdoor Photography Courses from Heli Canada Adventures!

Photography seminars in the BC RockiesWildflower meadows studded with summer colour, cloud-wreathed alpine peaks that scrape the sky, glaciers that reflect the sun in millions of points of light... Here in Canada's Rocky Mountains, the play of light and shadow creates an ever-changing landscape that provides the ideal setting for courses on the art of outdoor photography.

Heli Canada Adventures celebrates this with one- and three-day outdoor photography courses featuring instruction by renowned photographer Jim Maitre (see our photo gallery for samples of his talents). We tailor our photography courses for the needs of novices and experienced photographers alike, whether you need a firm grounding in the basics, or an opportunity to practice the finer points of outdoor photography.

Photography seminars Heli CanadaOur outdoor photography courses are adventures in the finest traditions of art: the unparalled wilderness setting of the Monashee mountain range just west of Revelstoke, British Columbia, Canada; the exhilarating scenic helicopter rides that offer an eagle's eye perspective on the landscape; gourmet picnic lunches; expert instruction; and optional accommodation that features the excellent Coast Hillcrest Resort in historic Revelstoke.

Heli Canada Adventures' superb one-day outdoor photography courses cover the basic principles of exposure control, the use of flash and tripod, and the art of composition. Depending on the group's experience, the courses move on to the finer details of outdoor photography while enjoying a moderate hike. These fun one-day courses can provide a catalyst for improving your outdoor photography skills.

Our inspiring three-day outdoor photography courses expand the instruction, and triple your "exposure" to spectacular mountain vistas, offering an outstanding variety of subjects, light and mood. These three-day adventures are ideal courses for exploring the secrets of taking professional-looking outdoor shots.

Photography seminars in the BC RockiesExpect to use a minimum of one 36-exposure roll per day; most people average 60 exposures daily on our courses, given good shooting conditions. Heli Canada Adventures provides film and developing at cost for all participants on our photography courses. 35mm cameras are mandatory, and multiple lenses, a flash and tripod are recommended, along with a waterproof pen and notepad. You should be prepared for changing light, weather and exposure on our adventures.
