Presentations and Photography Workshop

I’m very excited to announce that on April 30th, 2008 I will be presenting my body of work on the nature and landscapes of Ohio to the New York City Chapter of the Sierra Club in Manhattan. The last time I was in NYC was September 11, 2001. Obviously I departed in a somewhat altered frame of mind, so I’m looking forward to returning under more normal circumstances and even more excited to have the opportunity to share my visual discoveries of Ohio woodlands and landscapes with this particular audience.

This past November 14th I was pleased to present samples of my work, show a few pieces of photo gear and talk about my profession to four groups of 8th graders at Northmont Middle School in Clayton, Ohio. I was invited to participate in Career Choices Day at Northmont. As usual, it was fun and motivating to see some lights of interest turn on amongst a few faces in the audience as well as answer lots of interesting questions, such as “have you ever been attacked by any of the animals you take pictures of” and “what is your favorite place to take pictures.”

On Saturday, February 23, 2008 I will be conducting a half-day workshop on Nature and Landscape Photography at the Orvis Store at the Dayton Mall. Last spring I was there to show some of my prints as part of the store’s grand opening (pictured above with my special helper Emma Crotty). I was happy to be invited for a return visit to present an instructional workshop. I’m often asked if and when I will do a workshop, so, here’s my first of what will hopefully become many more. More info to follow.
