Springtime on the Outer Banks Photo Workshop

http://bcphotoadventures.com/OuterBanksPhotoWorkshop.php

April 21-25, 2010

Wednesday noon through Sunday afternoon at 2:00

$980 (discounts available)

Limit 12 with 2 instructors (maximum 6:1 student-to-instructor ratio)

Join our photography workshop on our own wild and pristine North Carolina barrier islands. By popular demand, we have added a springtime Outer Banks workshop, right in our own back yard. We will show you special gems along this untamed coastline we love so well.

The sunrises and sunsets can be spectacular, the patterns along the seashore and in the marshes inspirational, and the sights and sounds of the wild Atlantic pounding the coast intoxicating. You'll love photographing here, and you'll be able to celebrate your passion for photography, hone your seeing and imaging skills, and learn about the magic of light to make wonderful photographs.

For this workshop, we will be based in Nags Head, near the site of the first flight by the Wright Brothers. It is an area rich in history, so there is no lack of subject matter.

Springtime here is quite different from the fall. The Outer Banks are almost deserted; the winter winds have tossed the dunes around into new formations; and the coast looks particularly wild and dramatic. We'll pretty much have the place to ourselves!

We start out with some technical information before heading out for our first afternoon of photography. Our workshops include the following:

* Maximum 6-to-1 ratio students to instructors

* Opening wine-and-pizza reception;

* Primer booklet to help you get started;

* Early-morning and late-afternoon shoots;

* Mid-day downloading of your images and processing with the latest version of Lightroom;

* Lots of individual instruction in both the field and classroom;

* Critiques, both individual and group;

* Discussions on various aspects of photography, including digital workflow;

* Final group critique and show on last day (what many feel is the highlight of the workshop experience); and

* Lots of fun and frivolity throughout!

If you have not already done so, be sure to check our FAQs for questions you may have as well as equipment and installed downloads you need to bring to the workshop including, if necessary, the free, 30-day, trial versions of Adobe products.

You will also receive written instructions on the ins and outs of successfully and easily turning your favorite digital images into beautiful prints straight out of the latest version of Lightroom using your own printer.
