Join our Philippines photography workshop to explore Palawan, the Philippines’ most sparsely populated region is also the most beguiling. Pristine water, lush rainforests and an incredible diverse wildlife define this yet-to-be discovered paradise. You will stroll through traditional fishing villages, paddle on underground rivers, photograph tropical flora and fauna, and capture colorful sunsets on white-sandy beaches. The highlight of our photography workshop will be the stay on Flower Island, a private island with its own pearl farm. You will be able to document the process of farming and harvesting the rare gems – something not a lot of people get access to. Our adventure will be framed by a stay in Manila, the Philippines’ bustling capital, which allows for exciting street photography.
James Whitlow Delano is a Japan-based visual storyteller. His work has been published and exhibited throughout the world and led to four award-winning monograph photo books, including, “Empire: Impressions from China” and “Black Tsunami: Japan 2011”.
Projects have been cited with the Alfred Eisenstadt Award (from Columbia University and Life Magazine), Leica’s Oskar Barnack, Picture of the Year International, NPPA Best of Photojournalism, PDN.
In 2015, he founded EverydayClimateChange (ECC) Instagram feed, where photographers from 6 continents document global climate change on 7 continents.
ECC documents how climate change is not happening “over there” but it is also happening right here and right now. ECC is not a western view on climate change because photographers come from the north, the south; the east and the west; and are as diverse as the cultures in which we were all raised.
Delano is a grantee of the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting.
