ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP
This 5 day, 4 night workshop will be held in one of the most sought after locations by night sky photographers. It's rock formations and natural arches are accompanied by dark night skies that make this one special spot for landscape and night sky photographers. The camera is an amazing tool, and a tool that isn't used to it maximum capability most of the time. This is a great place to utilize our cameras and our imagination. Processing your images are very important as well, it's a multi phase process which you will learn to master during this workshop. We can not say for certain that we will have storms on during the workshop, that is why we will also have a few parks to explore like Arches NPS, Canyonlands NPS, and Dead Horse Point and Monument Valley. We may travel several hours a day to locate storms, or the storms may just come to us! If weather is no where to be found in our general area, we will utilize the landscapes and arches around Moab. It's an adventure full of surprises!

LODGING
We will stay in Moab, UT. I have stayed at the Big Horn Lodge before and it suites me just fine, and I love the look. There are many places to choose from like Comfort Inn, Days Inn, Best Western, Red Stone Inn and many others. Moab is a "happening" little town with lots of places to eat, shops and things to do. You can also camp in the park. If you are interested in camping let me know and I will help you get a site.
