Photo Competition “Guides in Action” Guides in Action

-


Promoting Guiding with photographs of real tourist guides guiding. This is our President Sebastian’s wonderful brain wave! 

So many promotion pictures are only of a site or landscape. These photos are only two dimensions. The Tourist Guide is the third dimension. We add the depth to anywhere we take guests. Rather than a stuffed dummy in a photo or a sidebar, the tourist guide is Guiding and this is the picture we need. This will help you promote yourself, your guiding business, you association and your destination.

The WFTGA wants to help you with this. 

First, we will have a simple webinar to help with your photographic technic and some postproduction tips. Helga Sturzenegger International Trainer & Area Representative and James Saunders ExBo member will host this. Both have a passion and deep love of photography. The webinar will be shared on the web page to all if you are unable to make it.

Second, we will run a competition to see who has the best photos. We will award a prize for this too. We are working on a suitable prize. The judging will be done by Tourist Guides and announced in Japan at the Conference. This is just about photography.

This is all going to be phone camera based, this allows for everyone to join in in. We do not want photographic professionals in this but real Tourist Guides.



Please email your attendance to James@wftga.org limited space!

Please Join and learn more. Contest information below;

We will provide a full and complete list of rules. We also will provide the required waviers.

  Ado-Ekiti sunday morning Iyan vibe is a evolving cultural concept with a gastronomic value. i grew up in Ado-Ekiti to understand that owanbe parties happens on saturday nights later saturday afternoon/evening and Ado-Ekiti been the capital of Ekiti-State the christian population dominates so sunday mornings are always 80 percent of church activities so you scarcely find a buka where food is sold...... this informed some set of people as the scarcity of food on sunday mornings continued, the cache to my observation with the people that came for the owambes were majorly not living here, even the other part guests living here will be kinda tired to want to cook on sunday mornings, but i trust some houses will still do. this write up makes me remember the smell of Rice chicken and dodo, listening to some old jams in my grandpa's house after church. Now, the sunday morning food scarcity has systematically created a culture in Ado-Ekiti now making iyan an available food in almost every...
