Eastern Sierra Fall Colors

 

We will meet in the wonderful town of Bishop California and over the course of the workshop follow the light and the fall colors up and down the East Side of the Sierras. Josh will be working directly with each and every individual to help with composition, technique, camera settings, and understanding lighting. Josh has shot fall in the Eastern Sierra for many years, has published several articles about the area, and knows where to go to find the best conditions.

DAY ONE: Meet in Bishop in the evening for hotel check-in, introductions, and a slideshow introducing the area as well as photographic techniques. We will try to do the slide show late enough to allow people time to shoot the sunset on their way to the workshop.

DAY TWO: We will rise early to shoot sunrise at Mono Lake and then shoot the fall colors at key locations between Mono Lake and Bishop. We will stop for a lunch break and shoot again late in the afternoon for good light. Evening image critique after dinner.

DAY THREE: We will shoot sunrise in the Bishop area. We will then shoot fall colors in several key locations in the Bishop area until mid morning. Then we will carpool to the White Mountains to photograph the ancient Bristlecone Pines for the afternoon and sunset. Depending on weather and conditions we may also do star trail photography after dark. Bring a sack dinner if you are planning on shooting the stars.

DAY FOUR: We will shoot sunrise in the Bishop area at one of a number of great locations depending on the conditions and continue shooting fall colors and landscapes until the workshop ends at noon.
