Washington workshop with Lynn Radeka and Mordecai Dunst

By: Lynn Radeka

Date: 2023-05-22 - 2023-03-26
Location: Washington State
The great Pacific Northwest! A versatile land of lush, dense rain forests, stunning snow-capped peaks, peaceful fishing villages, historic towns and lighthouses. This is the area that initially beckoned Lynn Radeka in 1974 and immediately he was hooked by the quiet beauty and charm of Washington state. Join Lynn Radeka and Mordecai Dunst as we photograph the amazing North Cascades, photogenic waterfalls, river details, and the nostalgic port towns of this special section of the USA.

We will concentrate on avoiding the commonplace, mundane cliche images and help everyone see subjects in a refined way that reflects and expands their personal vision.

This workshop is open to all photographers whether shooting large or small format black and white or color, traditional or digital! No photographer will be rushed regardless of his/her film format or digital format and experience level.

Each participant is expected to be self-sufficient with regards to all meals including indoor dining and all lodging in historic hotels along the route. A list of hotels, including Bed and Breakfast lodging will be furnished far in advance of the workshop. Camping is also available at many locations along the route. Please inquire about any concerns or limitations.

Digital photographers will enjoy the array of interesting software programs and techniques we will be discussing as well, including focus stacking for extreme depth of field and HDR for controlling extreme contrast. More importantly, the workshop flow will be largely determined by the needs and desires of the workshop participants, ensuring a very enjoyable experience for everyone.

This workshop, like all Radeka Photography workshops, stresses learning in the field by actually doing. We will not waste a full day of photographing by giving formal "classroom lectures" as many other workshops do. The only exception being a print review, and of course discussions in the field or during lunch/dinner. Bringing photographs, whether they be finished prints or simply proof sheets, is strongly recommended but not a necessity.

Tag-alongs are not allowed on this workshop except for spouses, which will be required to be self-sufficient. This workshop is limited to eight paid participants. Please see the signup details below.
