Workshop students under dark skies at Martis Camp

This class is designed for both beginning and advanced photographers. Capturing the beauty of Tahoe landscapes and the spirit of local nature will be the focus of this class. Fundamental topics covered will include exposure, composition and lighting. Instruction on subject and technique will also be incorporated. Experienced or not, students will learn how to display the true beauty of the earth through photography.

Son of renowned photographer and mountaineer Galen Rowell, instructor Tony Rowell found himself immersed in his father’s work from a young age, traveling with him to wilderness areas in Alaska, Canada and the American West. Tony’s most memorable adventures with his father include an ascent of Yosemite's Cathedral Peak at the age of 10, a 1983 climb of the Grand Tetons and a 1997 photography trip to Canada’s Northwest Territories. Tony’s photography expeditions have taken him from the Arctic Circle to the mountains of Tibet. His award-winning photos have appeared in books, calendars and in Astronomy, Backpacker, Nature’s Best Photography and Outdoor Photographer magazines.
