Date: November 26 - December 3, 2027
Occupancy:
Double Occupancy
$5,899
Join OM System Ambassador Lee Hoy in one of his favorite winter wonderlands as we we learn how to photograph wildlife and landscapes in winter scenes. Mastering exposure, autofocus, composition and fieldcraft in winter scenes is completely different than other photographic situations. We will learn some of the computational features in OM System cameras that apply to landscape photography. In our search for moose, bison, coyotes, mule deer, and more; we will also learn panoramic landscape images with high res shot. And, if the weather cooperates, we may get a chance to do some star trails in the winter sky! We will also do some street photography with the Jackson Hole town square decorated for Christmas. By going right after Thanksgiving, we take advantage of a quiet time when ski season hasn't started but winter is underway!
Bring your tripod, your remote shutter, your super telephoto lens, your sense of adventure, a desire to learn, and a willingness to experiment! If you do, you will experience the magic of Grand Teton National Park in winter!
