Naturalperl workshop participants at Bosque del Apache NWR. The light was soft and we reached the far end of the refuge, where large flock of snow geese fed on the corn fields.  We all got great shots there. The sunset was nice there too.

Please note that Naturalperl will lead special large format photography SRW and SSW for landscapes at Wichita Mountains NWR in November 2011 and for winter landscape at Santa Fe, Taos, Ghost Ranch area in December 2011.

The Sunrise (SRW) or/and Sunset (SSW) workshops are divided to two parts:
On location Part (SRW or SSW): after a brief introduction and instruction, the participants photograph together, individually and complete their assignments.
Discussion Part (DM): On a separate day (usually a week later) the Participants show their work photographed during the workshop and the assignments will be discussed. Those, who are interested for the discussion meetings only, pre-registration required and small fee will be charged.

Laszlo and Lexi of Naturalperl®, visited the Audubon Society’s Bolivar Flats Shorebird Sanctuary at Bolivar Peninsula. We were at the right place at the right time. Thousands of American avocets, Sandpipers were there, and later the huge White Pelicans also arrived. The birds accepted our presence and we took great photographs for several hours.


Tripo-brellas are in action. As an optional solution, you can wrap your camera with a shower cap, but we prefer our tripo-brellas. I like the darker green one, but Lexi likes the tan, because she often use it as a diffuser on non rainy days. If you interested for this product, please drop me an e-mail.
