Introduction
Journey through one of the most beautiful tropical islands in Indonesia. Sumba is an island in eastern Indonesia. It is one of the Lesser Sunda Islands and is in the province of East Nusa Tenggara. The scenery is a paradise for coastal and minimalism photography. We will take a flight from Bali to the island and explore the area on board an SUV. We will drive up to different locations to capture its unique dancing mangrove trees and exotic coastal locations. A rare photographic opportunity for photographers motivated in pushing their coastal and minimalist photography portfolio and skills to the next level. |
