SUMMARY:Winter Wonderland: The Enchanted Landscape with Shane Gutierrez
DESCRIPTION:Winter Wonderland: The Enchanted Landscape with Shane Gutierrez \nSundays\, Jan 11 (on-site at WAA)\, Jan 18\, 25\, Feb 1\, 8 (off-site/locations TBA) 2026 from 9:30 am – 12:00 pm (5 classes) \nWinter is a beautiful time of year for the photographer who is willing to get outdoors and brave the cold conditions. The land is reduced to its simplest form\, especially under a blanket of snow. Although I can’t guarantee the ground will be covered with snow\, there is a good chance it will be in January & February. The cold brings a pureness to the country that can be seen in the bare trees\, stark rock formations and the color of the ocean. This allows the photographer to capture clean lines and simple compositions. \nComposition rules will be covered as well as how to dress properly for the cold. Preparing yourself and your equipment along with understanding proper exposure on snowy days are all part of this class. With five weeks to work with\, I allow for one classroom session (1st class) and four “in the field” sessions. The outdoor classes will be weeks 2\, 3\, 4\, & 5. I have locations in mind that leaves it up to you on how much time (short\, medium or long doses) you will want to spend outside the car. If you get cold\, you’ll always be near enough to the parking area to jump into a warm car to take the chill off. \nFor anyone with plenty of spring\, summer\, and fall pictures looking to fill in that winter gap in your landscape portfolio\, or for those who love the wintertime\, this class will give you that kick in the pants to get out beyond your driveway and the confidence you need to overcome your fear of a cold and drab landscape and see the landscape for what it is\, a winter wonderland. \n$175 Members | $205 Non-members \nCLASS REGISTRATION – CURRENT MEMBERS \nCLASS REGISTRATION – NON-MEMBERS
