Photo Safaris

I'll be the first to admit that work has prevented me from doing much with my photography, but I need that to change, if only a bit. Since I'm going on vacation soon, I'll make some progress in this area. But after having spent some time this morning talking with someone about photography, I've realized how much I've missed spending time with people who feel the same way I do. So, I've decided it's time for some photo safaris. They've really helped open my eyes as to options, techniques, and just plain fun. Here are examples of my work from past safaris:





The third one is significant to me, as that's when I was told that I needed to keep shooting and keep trying. The instructor had never seen anyone take that picture before - and she'd led the safari more than a few times.

Anyway, I miss experimenting, interacting with fellow hobbyists, and just enjoying myself. With that said, I'm considering the following safaris:

Fine Art Photography - I really want to learn more about this, what it means, and how it could apply to me.

Afternoon Light in Annapolis, MD - To learn how to take unique pictures of typically touristy areas

Panoramic Photography - This could really be interesting. I don't love Photoshop or anything, but I love landscapes and want to learn more.

Coming this week - trip updates, assuming my equipment, the weather, and my motivation cooperate. :)
