It’s August and I am teaching workshops! The Palouse is another terrific place for photographers in Washington State. The wheat fields are iconic for this region, sculpted from silt dunes that were deposited during the last ice age.
My next Palouse workshop will be July 17-19, 2015
There are a very few spaces left for the January & February 2015 Antarctica trip conducted by Luminous Landscape and led by six of the world’s finest photographic instructors, including yours truly. Join us?
Like other conservation photographers at the iLCP, I support David Slater’s copyright to the now famous ‘selfies’ of the critically endangered crested black macaque.
Read the iLCP press release and learn more about David Slater & help support Sulawesi Crested Macaque Conservation.
The field workshop I lead on the Oregon coast is always one of the most relaxing. The locations are gorgeous–Cannon Beach, Cape Meares, Astoria, and the Columbia River. There is always something new to see!
The next one is scheduled for July 10-12, 2015.
Congratulations to the latest Compelling Image Contest winner, Joseph Anthony, and to all the runners-up and honorable mentions!
The new contest will start soon. Stay tuned for details.

Art of Compositions Seminars:
This past week I was in Katmai National Park photographing brown bears with filmmaker Abraham Joffe. The bears were wonderful, cooperative models for us & I can’t wait to see the resulting TV special.
I was very excited to get back in the studio for the first time in two years to continue my exploration of the Human Canvas project–this time with a Leica. It germinated in my mind over 20 years ago and I’m not nearly through with it yet. Abraham Joffe and his crew were in from Australia to film the day’s work as well,which was long, tiring and wonderful.
I recently completed an interview with Graeme Green of Curious Animal. Curious Animal is online magazine for Adventure Travel, Photography, Music, Books, Big Issues and Ideas from around the world. He split the interview into two posts.
“I’m as enthusiastic as I was 40 years ago. The big death for a lot of artists is when they run out of enthusiasm, run out of ideas, run out of inspiration.”
I am off to Katmai National Park for a week. Those brown bears are irresistible if you ever get the chance!
