This workshop is sold out. Please call our office to be placed on the waiting list.
Come along as we experience Grand Canyon National
Park in the off-season. Winter is the perfect season to catch
the Canyon at its dramatic best. The cool, crisp air provides
crystalline light, perfect for photography. Shorter daylight
hours means no early wake-up calls to be in position for
sunrise shooting, but the lower angle of the sun provides
longer hours of the sweet light that photographers crave.
 And, if we’re lucky, Mother Nature will bless us with a
mantle of new-fallen snow while we’re there. We’ll also have
opportunities to photograph the national park’s menagerie of
wildlife. We may get up close and personal with the tourist-friendly
deer, squirrels along the rim and the precocious scrub
jays. This time of year, there’s even the chance for encounters
with reclusive desert bighorn sheep and California condors.
