Autumn in The Smoky Mountains

October 24th - 27th, 2019, Townsend, Tenn. Instructors - Tom Croce & Robert Coomer

Join us in the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains National Park for 3 days of photographing the beautiful colors of autumn. We will spend several hours each day, as long as the light allows, shooting the landscapes located in and around Cades Cove, Tremont, Roaring Fork, just to name a few. The exact location and subjects will be determined by the weather.

In order to insure the maximum amount of personal attention the number of participants for this workshop is limited to 12. Participants should have a strong understanding of exposure and know how to operate your camera.

Each day's schedule will vary depending on the weather, but in general we will be photographing all day. This will be hands on learning and all questions and issues will be addressed in the field.
