Smoky Mountain Field Workshop - March 30 - April 1, 2012 - OPEN

The workshop begins at 1pm on Friday, March 30, with a meet and greet, and then an introductory lecture. The afternoon will be spent in the field shooting nature and wildlife, then shooting the landscape at sunset from a mountain.

Saturday morning, March 31, we will begin before first light. We will arrive inside the park to shoot the fog and mystical light of early morning. We will continue to shoot the landscape as well as wildlife and macro subjects until lunch. Following lunch, Paul will present an instructional/ inspirational lecture on photographic techniques. After this siesta for lunch and lecture, we'll head back into the field to practice freshly learned photographic skills. The day will conclude after sunset.

On Sunday, April 1, we’ll shoot one final sunrise, and we'll be honing skills in the field until lunch time. Following lunch there will be a group critique where participants will share their strongest images from the weekend and receive constructive feedback. We will conclude around 3pm. You won't want to miss this experience!

We'll work the landscapes, possibly stalk deer or bears, and certainly hone your artistic vision. Participants always find the classroom portion extremely helpful for diving head-long into digital photography.
