INTRODUCTION
The workshop consists of learning the use of one of the most popular applications currently used by professional and amateur photographers everywhere to plan their images. Photopills lets you envision, programme and plan spectacular photographs: Take a photo of Cloquer with the full moon behind it, or a picture of the sun rising behind Puig dels Jueus. Photopills lets you know if these photos can be taken and, if so, on what date and at what time it they may be taken.
