Believe
In Magic
Magic!
The elusive element that’s capable of causing one’s images to stand out from
the
crowd.
Learn about it and where to find it during this session.
The Moment of Discovery
This
session will cover what to do in the field when everything — lighting,
subject, and background — comes together.
Jump-Starting
the Creative Process
There
are only a limited number of ways to photograph a polar bear or snow goose.
Right?
Wrong!
That kind of thinking is the biggest obstruction that keeps many photographers
from expanding their creativity and producing new and exciting images. This
session will cover techniques that Weldon has used to jump-start the creative
process.
In

this session, participants will learn the biggest stumbling block that prevents
many photographers from producing a winning image, along with the different
techniques that Weldon employs in overcoming it. Also covered, are the various
elements important to transforming an ordinary photograph into a winning image.

Topics . . .
Digital
Workflow
Learn
every step and technique that Weldon employs during this creative process that
begins in the field and ends when he stores the final product on his external
hard drive.
The
Digital Darkroom: Making A Symphony
According
to Ansel Adams, “The negative is the equivalent of the composer's score, and
the print the performance.” Participants will learn the digital
equivalent of the darkroom techniques that Adams used to make his classic
landscape images.
The
Missing Element: One With Nature
Have
you ever viewed an image that left you at a loss for words? One so beautiful
that when you first viewed it, it caused you to say to yourself
“Oh...my...gosh?”
Sure you have. Unfortunately, we often fall short in our attempts at producing
such an image. Before a photographer can make an image that moves one’s
spirit, the photographer’s spirit must first be moved.
During this session, Weldon will reveal what he has learned about this missing
ingredient and the steps necessary to begin your own journey - a journey that
will not only improve your wildlife photography, but change your life.
