Adventure Travel Photography Workshop

	© Michael Clark

Travel and adventure, when put together make for a very photogenic experience. This exciting workshop will hone your adventure travel photography skills via hands-on experience while canoeing down the Rio Grande in Big Bend National Park with Far Flung Outdoor Center. We will explore how to create exciting landscapes, photograph people in the outdoors, the tools and equipment involved, basic lighting skills with reflectors and fill flash, drawing the viewer into the image with remote camera techniques and capturing the action of a river trip.

Michael's workshop concentrates on anticipating and creating powerful adventure images. The goal is to get everyone thinking about how they can make a good image even better and then pursuing that image. Students will be pushed to get creative with angles, lighting, and composition as well as capturing the intensity and subtle beauty of the adventures we experience while on the river. Michael will also delve into career development and all that entails if participants are interested.

This workshop is for photographers of all abilities who are interested in invigorating their adventure travel photography. No previous outdoor adventure experience is required for this workshop. Both film and/or digital cameras are acceptable for this workshop. Students using digital cameras will need to bring a backup storage device to store their images on or enough memory cards to get them through the three-day workshop. A 35mm SLR camera, either digital or film is recommended though point and shoots that can be controlled manually are also acceptable. If you have questions or concerns you can email me via my website.
