WHAT TO EXPECT:
While hiking with the spectacular backdrop of the Lake Tahoe area as a canvas, you will learn and practice how to observe and capture extraordinary images in nature.
This three-day hike and photography adventure is instructed by fine art photographer Niobe Burden, www.niobeburden.com.
Daily hikes will be at elevations of 6500’-8500’ feet and suited for most hiking abilities. A more leisurely pace will allow the group time to examine a vast selection of subjects in beautiful light and appreciate the wildflowers and forest details framed by mountain and lake views. Niobe's individual instruction will be tailored to your needs whether you are a casual or serious photo enthusiast who desires to go to the next level.
With group instruction you will practice setting up compositions by looking to all corners of the frame and working with different types of light. There will be two evening group discussions where greater insight into your photographs and technique will be gained. Film cameras are acceptable but digital cameras are strongly recommended as they will allow you to participate in the group critiques. Lightweight tripods are encouraged but not required.
