North Lake,
South Lake, Lake Sabrina, Aspendell,
Siesta
Lake, Tuolumne Grove… these are some of the
locations
that we will be exploring for fall colors.
General Workshop Guidelines for the Fall Colors of the Eastern Sierras:
Bring clothing suited
for a variety of temperatures, from cold mornings to warm afternoons. Also
be prepared for potential stormy weather.
To quote David Muench: "bad weather equals good photographs."
Food, lodging and transportation are not included. Some of you may want to camp, some stay in a hotel, some may want to eat with the group while others may prefer to be on their own. This arrangement provides for maximum flexibility while keeping the cost of this workshop to a minimum. It gives you maximum freedom in planning your meals and also gives you time by yourself if you choose. If you would like to share an automobile and a room with another participant, please feel free to do so.
We will email you directions to our meeting place and a detailed workshop schedule approximately 2 weeks before the workshop.
An SUV type of vehicle
would be most suitable for this workshop. Best would be a 4WD high clearance
vehicle. We may be crossing streams and driving on back roads with rocks
that would require a higher clearance type of vehicle. If you can, carpool
with another photographer who has a 4WD high clearance vehicle or consider
renting one together.
We will be using walkie talkies to keep in touch with one another as we
travel. If you have a walkie talkie, please bring it with you. If you don't
have one, this is the one I would suggest... Walkie
Talkies with batteries. There will be no cell service
in most of the areas into which we will be traveling
We normally have a no tag-along policy during workshop time. However, due to the nature of this workshop, spouses and significant others are encouraged to share this experience with you. Some experiences are best when shared with a loved one and this trip is one of those.
