Fall Foliage Photography Workshop

Attention all amateur photographers! Spend two days in this in-depth workshop on photography during one of the most visually exciting times of the year in Zion National Park. Shades of yellow, peach and red abound as the group works among the box elder, cottonwood, and maple trees in the park. Workshop attendees will work in several geologically distinct areas with the chance to photograph sweeping landscapes or to concentrate on the small things that make Zion special.

For the serious photo enthusiast, this is a chance to further your techniques and see the park’s many natural resources. A primary goal in this workshop will be to teach all participants how to operate their cameras in full manual mode. (Tripods are a must.)

The first three hours of the first day will be indoors and the rest of your class time will be in the field making photographs with someone who knows the park inside and out. Feel free to bring samples of your work for a group critique. Class breaks each day at noon for lunch, reconvenes at 2:30 p.m. and stays out till dusk. PLEASE NOTE: This is a photography workshop, not a computer class. There will not be a digital darkroom component to this class. There is 3 – 4 miles walking on uneven ground with some uphill/downhill each day. Participants must be honest in assessing their ability to traverse this terrain under these conditions!

The workshop will take place from Thursday, October 26 to Friday, October 27. Admission is $225. Limited to eight participants. To register or find more information, visit zionpark.org.
