It’s a little less than two months until a really special photography workshop is scheduled to begin, August 8 to be exact. It’s understandable if some folks are wondering what to expect from a workshop titled Quiet Waters of the Adirondacks. As it says on my website for Quiet Waters we’ll relax and emphasize the quiet waters in […]
I’m happy to pass along some good news. NANPA, the North American Nature Photography Association has posted my article on “Picking a Photo Workshop” on its blog. If you want to check it out, here’s a link. Picking a Photo Workshop Let me know what you think.
Each day of “Quiet Waters” begins with a scene like this for us to enjoy as well as capture. Wow! We’ve just completed an intensive week of photography in Shenandoah National Park with exciting photographers ranging from Ontario, Canada, to Upstate New York and New York City. The park itself challenged us and the […]
It’s easy to consider a workshop full once we’ve received enough registrations to max-out the capacity of the workshop leader(s) to effectively work with everyone who’s participating.

Sometimes I actually carry my DSLR but most days so […]

So, excuse me if I’m having a difficult time “spring”-ing into the season. Okay, I admit it, I always find it difficult to get into […]
A month from this coming Saturday should be a great day for photography . . . especially if you enjoy photographing streams and waterfalls. I know a lot can change in a month. Still, as spring warms, snow melts and the rains fall . . . it’s looking good. A month from Saturday is May […]
