$4500

Two incredible national parks & one stunning state park . . .

SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FALL LOCATIONS

This is that dream trip you've been drooling over for quite a while now. It's your time to go! Let's do this!

Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, Massachusetts. Go ahead and tell me you're not interested in this Road Trip. First of all, you've got tons of historical locations and sights to see. Then the landscape of rolling hills, mountains and river valleys to experience. Cities and towns of such history to witness. Oh ya . . . those
colorful fall colors. OMG!

These highways that hug the forests of the New England states are roads that you'll drive for a mile and stop to photograph a church, schoolhouse, stable, cemetery or those beautiful and colorful fall trees you've heard about. So, you get out of the car and shoot . . . get back in the car and drive another mile because there will be another church, or schoolhouse or amazing landscape that is just screaming for YOU to stop and photograph.
I'm so serious!

This is one of those lazy and crazy Road Trips with mile after mile of beauty, splendor and history,
all we need to do is pay attention. There is SO MUCH that requires our photographic
attention . . . oh my!

WHAT TO EXPECT

This is such a fun and rewarding location to photograph in. Almost every direction has a gorgeous scene. Around every corner is an old building, cemetery or more brilliant landscape than the last one we oooggled over!

This Road Trip is about creating fine art images. I mean the ones beyond the obvious that we see a lot of.

This is a true road trip as we will be starting in Albany, NY then head north to Burlington, VT. A right turn on Hwy 2 and we'll enjoy the countryside of Vermont and New Hampshire as we head towards Maine and Acadia National Park. We then head south to Portland & Portsmouth, ME on our way back to Albany to complete this whirlwind of colors, history and photography.

Now, that is the short version. WE will probably stop every mile to photograph everything! This is such a rich area for our cameras and creative eye.

Are you excited about this Road Trip yet? Well, allow me to continue. Did I mention the cemeteries, old churches and barns? How about rolling hillsides of fall colors? Oh, and the lighthouses all along the Maine coastline . . . we won't forget those!

LODGING

WHAT TO BRING

Camera, tripod, filters, lenses, shutter release, Hoodman loupe and whatever other gear makes you happy. Also bring your laptop with Photoshop and Lightroom already installed and working. Sunscreen, sunglasses, bug spray and a hat

are advised. Having layers of clothing is great

as you can take off and put them back

on as the temperature changes. Having rain

gear available is not a bad idea either.

Rain gear for your equipment, too!

IN THE CLASSROOM

This is a hands-on opportunity so bring your computer! I have discovered that offering critique sessions during a Road Trip greatly increases your growth. Being able to shoot, critique, adjust and understand during a workshop is a very efficient and

rewarding way to learn.

ZOOM

I will offer a Zoom session a couple of weeks following the Road Trip. This is an ideal situation because we are all comfortable at home with our familiar computer setups. We will take a look at your imagery and I can offer critiques and other helpful and positive feedback. Then I will offer my
step-by-step process of howI interpret
and enhance my imagery.

YOUR INVESTMENT

For your investment you will have the opportunity to photograph some of the most incredible landscapes in the national and state parks system. There are a

lot of unique views and landscapes to

photograph in the parks we

will be visiting in Utah.
