The Wilderness Photography Workshop

October 3-5, 2008
Glacier National Park, $95

The Wilderness Photography Workshop is an opportunity for participants to learn the intricacies of wilderness photography in scenic Glacier National Park. Out in the field at first and last light, participants shoot photos of fall colors, lakes and streams, mountain filled skylines and burned areas, as well as frost-lined leaves and morning-chilled insects. The Workshop is an opportunity to experience wilderness with a lens: focusing on light, color, form, and composition.

Transportation, instruction, camping and dinners provided; participants must provide camping and hiking gear and other meals. This introductory wilderness photography workshop is not geared for professional photographers.

The workshop will be led by Tim Cooper. Tim began his career as a commercial and assignment photographer working with clients such as The North Face, Vasque boots, 3M and The International Heart Institute. Currently, he instructs courses at the Rocky Mountain School of Photography in Missoula and his photographs are collected widely.

To register for this workshop and for more information please contact the Wilderness Institute.
