Landscape Photography Workshop Petit Jean State Park with Greg Disch

When: May 15-17, 2020 (Friday 5pm – Sunday 4pm)

Where: Petit Jean State Park

This workshop will have a maximum of 16 students.

Cost:

  • PSNWA Member: $199
  • Non PSNWA Member: $299

During this weekend photography workshop we will spend time in both a classroom setting and in the field photographing so that you immediately put into practice what you learn in the class.

Petit Jean State Park is an Arkansas classic, a natural and historic treasure that has welcomed travelers for decades. The natural beauty and ancient geology of the legendary Petit Jean Mountain inspired the creation of Arkansas’s first state park and with it our state park system. The park mirrors the mountain’s rugged beauty with its rustic-style, native log and stone facilities constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) beginning in 1933. The CCC built trails, roads, bridges, cabins, and the focal point of the park, historic Mather Lodge, a 24-room lodge overlooking Cedar Creek Canyon.

Landscape photography shows spaces within the world, sometimes vast and unending, but other times microscopic. Landscape photographs typically capture the presence of nature but can also focus on man-made features or disturbances of landscapes.

Learn to take fantastic landscape photos in this weekend workshop.  We will have time in the classroom combined with several landscape photo shoots allowing us to go from an idea to a finished photo.  We will go through the process of finding a location, photographing, and then complete the image with post processing in Adobe Lightroom.

• Learn to create sun starbursts in your photos.
• Learn to research a location.
• Learn to use composition to create a stronger image.
• Learn to build panoramas.
• Learn to create natural HDR images.
• Learn how to make tack sharp images.
• Learn when and how to use filters.
