You and fellow photographers will explore the beauty and desolate wonders of Death Valley with ominous but colorful sounding names like Badwater Basin, Dante’s View, Furnace Creek and the Devil’s Golf Course. We will explore sand dunes, salt flats, colorful sandstone canyons and historical sites in early morning and late afternoon golden hour and blue hour light, and keep our eyes peeled for Death Valley’s famed wildflower blooms.
Subjects will include, but not be limited to: unique salt flats, colorful rock formations, sand dunes, mountain vistas, slot canyons, a ghost town, sunrises, sunsets and astrophotography in an internationally recognized dark skies park. The park contains incredibly varied topography, with the lowest elevation in North America (282′ below sea level) as well as mountains up to 11,000′ high!
We will end the workshop with a group slide show and supportive critique. You’ll be surprised what your fellow photographers come up with at the same locations, and that’s part of the fun!
