“I love photographing, and I attend several workshops to get better. I particularly appreciated those given by Riccardo Improta, and the passion with which they are planned and held. Despite all the improvisation you can find in other courses, I realized there was a deep knowledge of the travel destinations which, joined to professional and communicational skills make the attendance a safe choice. The amazing locales for taking shots, the general organization, the evening review sessions, Riccardo’s ability to manage and blend our groups make me choose SLPW every time. This way, I can have my moments of insight, but also amusement, for the sheer pleasure of travelling and photographing.”

“I had always wanted to attend a landscape photo workshop, as a chance to combine the delight of discovering dream places with the possibility of improving as a photographer, learning from professionals. Among several options, I eventually chose SLPW, relying on the solidity of Riccardo Improta, whom I met during one of his many courses. Having an eight-day-experience in Brittany has definitely increased my technical knowledge and my expressive skills. Riccardo is a thoughtful professional, a great connoisseur of incredible locations, a wise planner, and an amazing fellow traveler. I’m going back home satisfied, keeping with me a deep breadth of the Breton landscape, a memory of wonderful group experiences and a desire to plan the next workshop!”

“Taking part in a SLPW photo workshop with tour leader Riccardo Improta was a breathtaking adventure, a unique and extremely funny experience, a discovery trip both inside and outside of me. Riccardo speaks to his students looking straight into their eyes, making it easy to start a creative dialogue between photographer and light, places, landscapes, elements and cultures. He has a well-planned itinerary every day, yet with a new intuition and taste all the time. Pics are taken in the silence, surrounded by the whispers of nature. You look; you think; you laugh; you get to know others; you get to know yourself; you get to recognize yourself; you learn.”
