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

COLORADO WILDFLOWERS ARE SIMPLY STUNNING

We'll spend hours in the field with endless flowers and scenery you'll not want to leave. With Colorado's high country being one of the premier locations for wildflowers and breathtaking scenery, This Road Trip always proves that this is a can't miss opportunity for you. From fields of Columbine to individual blossoms of many other colorful flowers, this workshop will satisfy your desire to create stunning pieces of art.

We're going up to Yankee Boy Basin where, at above tree line the skies are sapphire blue and the wildflowers a prolific. The waterfalls are
alluring and beautiful. Butterflies and
dragonflies everywhere.

Bring your wide lens, your macro lens, tripod and some reflectors as we put them to good use creating fine art images you'll want to hang on your wall!

WHAT TO EXPECT

We will be hanging out in SW Colorado where the wildflowers and scenery are pretty much endless and breathtaking . . . I promise!

Our home base will be in Ouray. Some of the locations we will be visiting are Yankee Boy Basin, The Million Dollar Highway, Red Mountain Pass, Black Bear Pass, and many other luscious locations in the SW of Colorado.

LODGING

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!

WHAT TO BRING

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.

Your initial deposit is fully refundable within 72 hours of making the deposit. After 72 hours, your deposit becomes non-refundable. The balance of the workshop is due 30 days before the first day of the workshop. If your initial deposit is made inside of 30 days from the first day of the workshop, full payment may be required in lieu of the usual deposit. A payment schedule may be arranged if this makes attending a Soul Road Trip more possible for you. Contact me directly for an installment payment opportunity. EMAIL

CANCELLATIONS, REFUNDS & TRANSFERS . . .
Sometimes you need to cancel a trip. Plans and desires change and we understand that. We also hope that you understand certain arrangements, reservations and plans must be made weeks if not months out from a workshop. Deposits are used to make these arrangements to make your experience a pleasant one. Of course, we wish you to come again and again and to tell your friends about your wonderful experience.

However, if you must cancel, please be aware of these policies. After the initial 72 hours after making a deposit, that deposit is non-refundable. If you cancel after 72 hours and 30 days before the first day of the workshop, any additional monies are refundable less a 15% administration fee. If you must cancel within 30 days before the first day of the workshop, all funds are non-refundable so we recommend travel insurance.
