Workshop Report
Big Bend, October 2011
Thomas J. Avery Photography

__

Workshop Details:
Instructor: Thomas J. Avery
Assistant: Lacy Logan
Students: 9
Dates: October 21 - 25, 2011
Focus: Landscape and Night Photography

_
Nine photographers joined me in my favorite place, Big Bend National Park, for a five day photography workshop. These folks came from different parts of the US and also Mexico.

Our time together was a lot of fun, but we also worked hard to photograph the area and night skies. We had nearly cloudless skies that made daylight landscape photography a challenge but provided us with awesome dark skies after sunset.

The photos and gallery links below visually describe the workshop far better than any written description. Please take the time to view them and get a sense of the great experiences we shared together.

Many, many thanks to all 9 participants. I enjoyed it and have some great memories that will stay with me forever.

best regards,
TJ Avery
