We begin our workshop by walking through downtown Santa Fe in the early morning hours. We will witness and capture light play that the sun creates as it rises. We will photograph architecture, art and history throughout the day.
We will visit Pecos National Park and photograph the historic ceremonial kivas. The light that streams down into these underground sites creates stunning imagery. We will photograph light, color, black & white and Canyon Road that has inspired artists throughout history.
Today we will photograph historic buildings photographed by Ansel Adams in and around Taos, NM. We will visit and photograph a pueblo, and return to Santa Fe for a creative processing class.
Our final morning will be spent wandering the soft light filled streets and buildings in the heart of downtown Santa Fe.
