RE: [Digital BW] Photo workshops and expeditions

Tom-

I took one of Galen Rowell's Mountain Light workshops last fall in
Bishop, Ca. It was a 3-day workshop, focusing primarily on capturing the
light during the 'golden hours' at the beginning and at the end of each
day. If you have seen Galen's prints, you will know what I am talking
about. Anyway, it was also geared only to 35mm photographers, as that is
what he did his critiques with. No use taking the class if you don't get
critiqued.

I would definitely sign up for his 4-day advanced class, but my style is
moving towards 100% black and white in 4x5 large format with digital
printing. Totally opposite to what his work is like.

Subject: [Digital BW] Photo workshops and expeditions


I've never been much of a "meeting go-er" and usually sleep through 
seminars that are more than an hour... but I've been reading about a 
lot of photo workshops that are "hand on" by definition and wonder if 
anyone here has taken part in any...if so what you feel the value 
is/was/might be...

An article in this month's OUTDOOR PHOTOGRAPHER lists a bunch of 
them. I'm thinking about one near home etc.

Cheeseman's Ecology Safaris
Close-up Expeditions
Mountain Light Photography
Palm Beach Photographic Center
Rod Planck Photography
Santa Fe Photography and Digital Workshops
West Coast Imaging Photoclassroom.com
Great American Photography Weekends
Lapp Institute of Digital Imaging

These are the ones that caught my eye on the list...any comments good 
or bad on any of them???

Thanks,

Tom O'Connell

Yeah, Galen's work centers around extremely vivid colors. Take a look at
my photos from the workshop weekend:

Sorry for the side conversation in a b&w digital printing thread. Tom,
if you have any more questions, email me offline.
