Large Format Camera Photography with Mark Citret Dates: September 17-21, 2013 Large format cameras require a disciplined approach to photography that, by itself, will help you develop a thorough understanding of the medium. Under the tutelage of an instructor the caliber of Mark Citret, you will learn the how the differences of lenses, filters, exposures, and film development can be manipulated to achieve your vision, and how your choices will constrain your results. This is old school, and proud of it. Ansel Adams’ Yosemite: The Art of Seeing With Alan Ross Dates: October 8-12, 2013 “Chance Favors the Prepared Mind” was one of Ansel Adams’ favorite expressions. And it was his own prepared mind that allowed him to so successfully realize his artistic vision. In this inspirational workshop, the emphasis will be on connecting Ansel’s approach and mastery with today’s tools and technologies, allowing you to better realize your own photographic vision. Autumn Colors in Yosemite Valley with Ray McSavaney Dates: October 15-19, 2013 Autumn is a special time in Yosemite, and the spectacular autumn colors are no less beautiful in shades of silver and gray than full color. “Seeing” in black & white is different than “seeing” in color, and this workshop is designed to help students of both media explore their vision and practice their composition. And what better place than Yosemite National Park! Digital Landscape, Autumn in Yosemite with Michael Frye - SOLD OUT Dates: October 29-November 2, 2013 Digital cameras are great tools for landscape photography, but sometimes the learning curve seems steep.
