Joe LeFevre presents "Making Nature Time-Lapse Movies"

 at NECCC

Joe LeFevre (NY) Making Nature Time-Lapse Movies
The latest digital cameras offer excellent opportunities for visual expression.  One technique that is especially well suited to digital capture is time-lapse photography, where hours of elapsed time are condensed into seconds or minutes.  In this introductory session, Joe will cover all the basics of making nature time-lapse movies including necessary equipment, choice of subject matter, field techniques, and post-processing software options.  The principles you will learn can be applied to other types of time-lapse photography besides nature.  Please join Joe for an informative session on a technique that you will enjoy trying because it’s just plain fun!

"A Nature of Possibility Retreat" (with Mark Bowie)
August 11-15, 2013
Woods Inn
Inlet, New York 13360
The retreat program is our ultimate Adirondack photography experience; a classic artist's retreat for experienced photographers who want to immerse themselves in their craft. As a participant you will be challenged to create a body of work based on your experiences during the week and share your results with the group. (We will be printing some of your work for display in the retreat space.) You will be photographing a variety of Adirondack landscapes chosen for their diverse possibilities — scenic mountains, woods, and waters that make the Adirondacks so distinctive. Your activities will be planned to take advantage of all the little things that make the Adirondacks unique in the pantheon of American wild places.For more information go to: http://www.adkpi.org/workshops-tours/2013/bowie_lefevre_aug11/index.html

"Waterfalls and Wine Country"
October 17-20, 2013
Ithaca, NY
Waterfalls and winemaking are what make New York's Finger Lakes region famous. Add in Autumn: pastoral, tranquil, and clothed in blazing color. What a fantastic combination for a workshop! Some of the most scenic waterfalls in the country reside here. There are over two hundred in the region, including Taughannock Falls, the highest in New York State. Each fall has its own character; some drop like bridal veils, others sluice over ledges, and some, like those in renowned Watkins Glen, carve dramatic chasms. Most of our photo time will be spent taking advantage of opportunities provided by the waterfalls near Ithaca and Watkins Glen. In addition, we will mix in a visit to a local winery or two, to break up our day and give us additional photo possibilities.
