Location:
If you haven’t been to Glacier before, now is the time! It is truly my favorite national park and basically in my backyard. Look there are many workshop tours based in the park, why not go with the local photographer who knows it best? I have been exploring and photographing the wonders of the park for nearly 30 years and know it extremely well.
The workshop will be based out of the small town of St Mary on the park’s more scenic eastern side. We will have many great photo options including early fall color, waterfalls and wildlife. Valleys like Two Medicine, St Mary and Many Glacier will be starting to take on fall hues in the underbrush and host lakes that can yield stunning reflections on calm mornings. In the past, we have had very good luck photographing moose in a small lake. Bighorn sheep and mountain goats are almost always on hand at Logan Pass so bring your telephoto lens.
Book early as this class sold out last time and lodging is limited. I have moved this class from July when the park is slamming busy and lodging extremely difficult to secure. This early autumn class offers a more relaxed experience. A great opportunity to sharpen and improve many aspects of photography skills in a special and unforgettable setting.
Equipment Suggestions:
A sturdy tripod is a necessity for good landscapes. Participants should have a working knowledge of their equipment (know which button does what!) before the workshop. I suggest an SLR camera with a wide-angle lens (17-35mm range) a medium telephoto lens such as 70-200mm and a 300+mm lens if you are interested in capturing birds or wildlife

Location:
Much like Teddy Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota, the badlands here come alive with the warm light of early morning or late evening. By the summer solstice the prairie grasslands have greened up and wildflowers begin to pop. Dramatic thunderstorms can roll through creating dynamic landscape opportunities. There is also a variety of prairie wildlife to photograph such as bison, prairie dogs, pronghorn antelope and bighorn sheep will have newborn lambs.
We will travel over to scenic Black Hills for several sessions before departing. You don't want to miss this special class!
Expect any kind of weather, it can be mild or sudden thunderstorm systems can bring high winds and rain. Though most of our locations are near the roadway, please note there will be hiking on trails involved to access some the locations. Expect less than 2 miles with some elevation gain. Bring appropriate clothing and footwear (good hiking boots).
EQUIPMENT SUGGESTIONS: A sturdy tripod is a necessity for good landscapes. Participants should have a working knowledge of their equipment (know which button does what!) before the workshop. You will have ample opportunity to use most of the lens in your equipment bag for this special tour. I suggest a mirrorless camera with a wide-angle lens (15-35mm range) for beach scenics and a telephoto lens up to 100-500 +mm for wildlife and birding opportunities.
