Eager to work on your horseback riding as well as your photographic skills while escaping the city, here's one for you.
Photographers Astrid Harrisson and Kirsty Noble teamed up to form Creative Photo Adventures which combines their love of travel, open space and a few good snapshots.
Their first offering is Argentina 2010, 5 days at Estancia Los Potreros in Sierras de Cordoba in November.
Here's what's will be on your horizon (from their notes):
• Horse-riding, includes a morning and/or afternoon ride
• An option for a full day photographic shoot and ride
• Polo session as a riding or photographic session
• Photo shoots at a variety of locations on the estancia including a sunrise or sunset shoot, mares and foals, galloping horses and gauchos
at work, horse breed demonstration, landscapes, wildlife
• Wine-tasting
• Nature walks
• Birdwatching
Travel and accommodations to and from Cordoba are not included.
Check the Full Program for practical details.
Maybe you should abstain from taking pictures while riding.
Kirsty Noble also runs Buenos Aires Boutique Tours where she offers Garden Tours. On various trips, I often found an hour spent in a local botanical garden to be a great way to clear my head and recharge my batteries.
