Photography Workshops Ahead & Added

Golden Gate Park Digital Field Photography Class

After a few years of working intensely on my Urban Eden Golden Gate Park project, I am excited to offer a two-day photographic workshop in this complex and beautiful landscape. Now 150 years old, this park symbolizes parkland engineering and the earth itself taking its own course of life and fecundity. The park will be explored over two days with a blend of photographic opportunity, assistance, and my growing knowledge of its own back woods. This springtime weekday workshop will avoid some of the weekend crowds.

Masterful Fine Art Digital Photography Printing Class

Give tangible physical existence to your photographs and create the only lasting form of your work, fine-art prints, as beautiful hand-made renderings. During four days of lectures, printing, and feedback, this class focuses on improving your fine-art digital printing in the fully-equipped Digital Lab. Concentration will be on inkjet printing with color pigments and black/gray ink combinations on coated and rag papers.

Point Lobos, Carmel, and Big Sur Field Photography Class

Three Days in Point Lobos. Carmel and Big Sur. Fieldwork at the park and visits to Carmel Galleries. Lectures and presentations.

Ansel Adams called Pt. Lobos "the greatest meeting of land and sea" on earth. It is truly an amazing combination of rock, surf, wildlife, changing light and abstraction...aqua surf, orange lichen, organic rock forms and waving sea palms. We'll walk the trails, wander the rocks, get lost in form and light.

Mono Lake and the Eastern Sierra Field Photography Class

Join us for four days exploring photography in the stark and beautiful scenery of this legendary lake, unlike any other landscape in the world. Its alkaline water, desert vistas, volcanoes and unusual tufa towers make it a remarkable place. The workshop will be taught by the pioneer in digital landscape photography, Stephen Johnson. Also the organizer of the "At Mono Lake" exhibition from which selections are currently on display at the National Forest Visitor's Center. Steve has been teaching at Mono Lake for more than 40 years.

Death Valley in Winter Field Photography Class

January 7 is the deadline to register for this class.

Since 1979 I have led winter photography workshops to Death Valley. I keep returning to this desert because there is a magic here, a quiet and vast expanse of sensual and strange earthworks, remarkable in color, resting under the soft winter light of January.

We will spend our first half day preparing for our outings. Topics covered will be optimal digital camera use in a variety of formats, file size and printing considerations. We will open files, review success, constantly going back in the field putting into practice lessons learned.

Yosemite Valley in Winter Field Photography Class

Winter in Yosemite Valley is a transformed world. Trees are wet and dark, the oaks are bare. The cliffs are blanketed with snow. Weather moves through in waves of clouds and mist. Ponds and river edges are frozen. There is usually snow on the valley floor. Visitors are dramatically fewer in number. Our three days together will likely be cold, but we will no doubt be warmed by the special beauty that winter brings to this grand valley. Although we will carpool to various locations, I hope our basic mode of transportation through the valley will be our feet. There is really no other way to come to know a place.
