Cost to attend: $800

Join me photographing the high desert of Eastern California at night! We'll be visiting 3 amazing locations: Mono Lake + Bristlecone Pine Forest + Hot Creek
This workshop is open to all, you don't need to be a professional to attend. We will spend scouting for compositions during the day, and the stars once it gets dark.
The extreme contrast of the Eastern Sierra is a photographer's paradise, from mountains and streams to the alien landscapes of Mono Lake. The Eastern Sierra mountain range runs almost 400 Miles in length, so the photographic possibilities are endless.

What type of clothing and shoes should I pack for the trip?
For travel in the Eastern Sierras, I recommend comfortable, casual clothing. Essentials include sneakers, shorts, long and short-sleeve lightweight shirts, a wide-brimmed hat, long pants, and a wind-breaker or light jacket for evenings. Be sure to bring sunscreen, sunglasses, Because we are in the desert, and sun rays are direct, I strongly recommend sun block with SPF30 or higher. Most walking will be over rocky, uneven surfaces. Therefore tennis shoes, sneakers or walking shoes with rubber soles are highly recommended
