October 4th - 9th, 2015

My most popular photography workshop is the eastern Sierra and the Bristlecone Pine Forest in the White Mountains. Join me as we explore the wonderful autumn colors and the surreal landscape of the White Mountains. The rich yellow gold of the aspen trees, the iridescent fire yellow of the cottonwoods and the mysterious astronomical images of the Milky Way in the night sky will intrigue and excite your photographic quest.


We'll also explore the canyons, lakes and meadows on the eastern side of Yosemite National Park. Including Mono Lake, the June Lake Loop, Conway Summit, Lundy Canyon, Lee Vining Canyon, Bloody Canyon and other great scenic locations.
We will then head south to the White Mountains where we will visit the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest. Believed to be the oldest trees on earth, some well over 4000 years old the bristlecones are fascinating in their gnarled shapes and story of survival. At over 11,000 feet elevation, the terrain is so hostile to these trees that they may grow only one leaf in a season! It has been said that if the moon had tress, this is what it would look like. We will finish with a sunrise shoot in the Alabama Hills. Famous as the premier location for old western movies with its unusual terrain of boulders and rock arches at the base of Lone Pine peak and Mount Whitney, photo opportunities abound.
Catering to small groups of up to six participants, I will challenge you to see things in a different way and help you capture stunning images.

Enhance your skills in your artful photographic evolution!
