This is an opportunity to immerse yourself into photography and the making of images with minimal distractions. We will be concentrating on landscape and detail photography, focusing on the theme of Fall Color. We designed this workshop to maximize the time you are out in the field shooting. Hands on, in the field instruction and guidance is a great way to quickly improve upon the images you make. All instruction will be personalized to the needs of each student. We can assist you with composition, technical questions, use of filters, how to get the sharpest image possible, and as well as the range of decisions you need to make to create a photograph that reflects your own artistic vision. Plenty of time during the afternoons will be provided for critique of the images that you make during the weekend.
The 194-acre Welkinweir and estate house serve as the home base for the workshop, with visits to additional shooting locations such as St. Peter’s Village and a periglacial marsh.
