In this newsletter .New Zealand West Coast and Fiordland Landscape workshop review. Dates of 2011 The summer light has arrived and our New Zealand based Landscape Photography Workshops have come to an end. The sun rising too early and setting latter each day. Queesntown is as beautiful as ever; the sunsets from our balcony with a glass of chardonnay are a highlight for this time of year. But we are about to escape for a couple of weeks to Japan to Photograph Autumn in Kyoto and Snow Monkeys in Nagono.
West Coast Landscape Workshop. September 2010 Mike Langford, Clare KIng, Cora Wright, Sue Josephsen, Terry and Robyn Randell, Tim McMahon, Pat Sheumack Sitting: Ruth Rickard, Selena Tan, Zoe Black and Kelly Dynis
This is a Photography Workshop destination that we encourage you to do again and again. The landscape changes dramatically from year to year. This year we left Queenstown at 10am and our first stop was twenty minutes later on the Crown Range. A late season snow storm had covered the range and was still falling.
