However\, potential locations could include the following: \n\n\n\n\nKonza Prairie – This location offers the best views of the natural landscape of Kansas that I know of!  Hiking trails wind through lowland gallery forest\, cross Kings Creek\, and climb over ancient limestone ledges into the native tallgrass prairie.  At the highest points\, enjoy spectacular views of the Flint Hills and the Kansas River Valley.\n\n\n\nThe Old Stone Church – Dedicated in 1882 as a Mission Church\, services were held here until 1905. Standing alone in the countryside\, the church is now a picturesque monument to the spiritual devotion of our forefathers.\n\n\n\nPillsbury Crossing – Pillsbury Crossing is a natural limestone slab that was used by pioneers to cross Deep Creek. The ledge terminates in a waterfall about 40 feet wide and with a drop of about 5 feet. For Kansas\, that’s pretty impressive!\n\n\n\nKansas State Capitol Building – With a dome taller than the United States Capitol\, an interior ornately fashioned over 37 years of construction\, and giant murals covering walls and ceilings\, this location poses both fascinating and challenging photographic opportunities unique to Kansas.\n\n\n\nNative Stone Scenic Byway – The winding byway\, which cuts through the rolling terrain of the eastern Flint Hills\, provides a chance to photograph the simple\, more subtle hues and nuances of the Kansas countryside.\n\n\n\nOld Architecture – There are several private\, abandoned architectural structures that special permission has been granted to photograph during the workshop. This provides special diversity impossible to capture outside of the workshop.\n\n\n\nLake Shawnee –  Though surrounded by city parks and a golf course\, this recreational hot-spot is a surprisingly good location for landscape and wildlife photography. The trick is going when no one else is around . . . in the quiet of the early morning.\n\n\n\nTed Ensley Gardens – Located on the west side of scenic Lake Shawnee\, this special park provides panoramic views of the lake and a beautiful setting to photograph a wealth of design ideas and spectacular plantings. The gardens span an area of nearly 20 acres.\n\n\n\nTransportation\n\nTransportation during the workshop is provided.\nTransportation to/from the workshop is not provided.\nAirport run to/from Kansas City International Airport available upon prearranged agreement.\nBe considerate of the dates and times your flights are scheduled to arrive and depart.

However\, the Columbia Gorge and Mount Hood area teems with incredible photography opportunities. Potential shooting locations could include the following: Trillium Lake\, Bridal Veil Falls\, Vista House at Crown Point\, Multnomah Falls\, Oneonta Gorge\, Wahkeena Falls\, and Lost Lake with vistas of Mt. Hood. \n\n\n\n\nBridal Veil Falls – From a parking lot on the highway\, a winding footpath and bridges lead to a vantage point for this spectacular falls. The falls consists of two cascades in quick succession along angling rockfaces\, so when there is a good amount of water the falls looks very much like its namesake. This is one of many\, many scenic waterfalls in the area that are game for visiting.\n\n\n\nVista House at Crown Point – Millions of visitors driving from Portland through the Columbia River Gorge don’t realize the full impact of its beauty until they come around the bend near Corbett and see the famous building on the top of the cliff to the right\, 733 feet above the Columbia River. This is Crown Point and the building is the Vista House.\n\n\n\nMultnomah Falls – Multnomah Falls is the tallest waterfall in the state of Oregon. Visiting a 611-foot-tall roaring\, awe-inspiring cascade of icy water\, lets you experience the power and beauty of nature up close.\n\n\n\nTrillium Lake – Trillium Lake Campground is a beautiful and popular campground not far from the quaint town of Government Camp. It provides spectacular views of majestic Mt. Hood\, Oregon’s highest point.\n\n\n\nOneonta Gorge – This spot has been designated as a botanical area because of the unique aquatic and woodland plants that grow there\, a wide variety of ferns\, mosses\, hepatics and lichens of which many grow only in the Columbia River Gorge. There are four major waterfalls on the Oneonta Creek as it runs through the Gorge\, which has been described as “one of the true dramatic chasms in the state.”\n\n\n\nLost Lake – You can find the heart of Mount Hood’s beauty and wildlife at Lost Lake. Photographers praise Lost Lake’s unrivaled vistas\, birdwatchers flock to see riparian and high elevation birds\, and natural history-lovers bask in old-growth forests and abundant wildflowers.\n\n\n\nVistas along the Columbia Gorge – Up to 4\,000 feet deep\, this canyon stretches for over 80 miles as the river winds westward through the Cascade Range forming the boundary between the State of Washington to the north and Oregon to the south. The Gorge is a place of spectacular natural beauty. The steep canyon walls rise in places to more than 4\,000 feet above the river. It is a place of waterfalls\, deep forests\, near-desert bluffs and unusual geography and climate.\n\n\n\nTransportation\n\nTransportation to/from the workshop is not provided.\nAirport runs to/from Portland International airport are available upon prearranged agreement.\nBe considerate of the dates and times your flights are scheduled to arrive and depart. Wednesday and Sunday afternoons are the best times to schedule your flight.

However\, potential locations could include the following: \n\n\n\n\nAbbot Lake – “The Peaks of Otter” are three mountain peaks in the Blue Ridge Mountains of southern Virginia that overlook the town of Bedford\, nine miles away. Picturesque Abbott Lake sits peacefully in the valley between the three peaks\, making it an easily accessible location for unique early morning or late afternoon photo opportunities.\n\n\n\nOur Father’s Farm – Run by the hospitable Fuhrmann family\, Our Father’s Farm was the first location a CAPTURE Virginia was held. Regardless of the time of day\, there are always lots of subjects to shoot around here\, from hay bales and farm equipment to chickens and kittens. The property is also dotted with numerous relics from the past: abandoned\, perfectly antiquated tobacco barns.\n\n\n\nFallingwater Cascades – A quaint\, unimpressive-at-first-glance waterfall that tumbles over the rocks by an easy trail that meanders through typical Virginia woodland. But it’s the perfect spot for the creative artist who is patient enough to find and unlock the hidden gems that this gulch has to offer.\n\n\n\nGross’ Orchard – Famous for their fresh peaches\, apples and simple\, country friendliness\, Gross’ Orchard & Apple Valley Homeplace will be headquarters for the workshop. Whenever we aren’t in the classroom or out taking pictures somewhere else\, we’ll have the orchard and surrounding vistas all to ourselves for experimenting with our cameras or helping ourselves to whatever fruit happens to be in season.\n\n\n\nBlue Ridge Parkway – There are countless places to stop and things to take pictures of along the Blue Ridge Parkway on either side of Roanoke. Random places along the side of the road sometimes make the most interesting of pictures.\n\n\n\nApple Orchard Falls – A more majestic falls than Fallingwater Cascade\, Apple Orchard Falls is a great backup location if we’re looking for something more impressive to photograph. The higher elevation may also provide some variety in the color of the foliage.\n\n\n\nOther Locations – Whether iconic or not\, scenic things to photograph in this area are endless. Depending on what we feel like\, we can shoot the Roanoke skyline at sunset\, walk downtown historic Bedford\, hike up to the Peaks of Otter summit\, or venture out to iconic Natural Bridge.\n\n\n\nTransportation\n\nAll transportation during the workshop is provided.\nTransportation to/from the workshop is not provided.\nAirport runs to/from nearby airports (Lynchberg or Roanoke) are available upon prearranged agreement.\nBe considerate of the dates and times your flights are scheduled to arrive and depart. Wednesday and Sunday afternoons are the best times to schedule your flight. Please submit your requests for airport runs to James Staddon at james@lenspiration.com.\nSuggested airport run donation is $10/run\n\nLodging\n\nFor lodging on Wednesday through Saturday nights\, there is room available at the Apple Valley Homestead where the workshop will be he held.\nSleeping arrangements for guys and girls will be separated.\nEstimated cost per night on location is $40/night\, with payment collected at time of arrival.\nPrice is completely dependent on the final number of attendees.\n\nMeals\n\nWholesome\, home-cooked meals will be provided for the majority of the workshop on a brunch schedule: a mid morning breakfast and a late afternoon dinner.\nSome meals may be taken at local restaurants near shooting destinations.\n\nClothing\n\nBring clothing for cold temperatures. Dress in layers.\nAverage late October temperatures in this part of the country are High 60\, Low 35.\nWe will be out before sunrise in the mornings which is the coldest part of the day\, and will most likely drop below freezing.\nBring stuff to keep you and your gear dry in the field in case it rains.\nModest attire is always in style.\n\nMore Details\n\nThe CAPTURE Details page provides overall information regarding specific topics covered\, generic schedule of each day\, suggested items to bring\, and more details on what is and is not included with your tuition.\nWe will visit a local church on Sunday morning for anyone who would like to come.\n\nQuestions?\nDon’t hesitation to drop questions on the Workshops Q&A forum! To contact James directly\, visit the Contact page or call 304-370-4846.
