We'll also spend time here in our Nevada City studio where we'll conduct slide programs, take a look at your work, and even create greeting cards using your photographs. Participants also receive a follow-up critique and photo collage . This is a small, personalized, intimate workshop that fills up quickly. Limited to 6 photographers.
Lodging is available in nearby Grass Valley.
We've made arrangements to stay in the Lighthouse Keeper's Cottages at Point Arena Lighthouse on the Mendocino coast and will use this as our base of operations for the entire weekend. Mendocino's always held a certain charm for photographers, and for good reason. The dramatic coastal bluffs, the rich colors of spring wildflowers, the peeling paint and weathered wood of old fishing boats, panoramic vistas and tiny macro details all combine to create a superb photo experience, no matter what your interest and style. This all hit home for me as I set up my tripod to photograph Point Arena Lighthouse sitting solitary on a bluff. Filling my frame with lighthouse, bluff and sky, I also noticed lots of pink sea thrift blooming against lichen-covered fence posts to my right, while an osprey hovered to my left, floating on the coastal updrafts.
