It’s Not Too Late to Sign Up For the Palouse Workshop!

Barn in wheatfields, Palouse, Washington, USA

A few spots still remain for our Palouse workshop coming up August 25th through the 28th! Capture the rolling landscapes and the old-world feel of this beautiful location. Wheat-topped hills and sporadic old barns compose a landscape seemingly frozen in time. The purity of the landscape, untouched by the modern irrigation systems that generally detract from otherwise beautiful farmland vistas, will allow you to capture truly unique images you won’t find anywhere else.

Visit the events page for more information, and to sign up for this visit to the Palouse!

Countless thank yous to the members for their support and for recognizing my work.  It was a great honor and a lot of fun.
