We just got back from the NECCC event immediately followed by our event at Hobart College for the PPSNYS in Geneva, NY.
We’re a bit tired, but had a great time with friends and, of course, it’s always great to share photography. I didn’t shoot a lot, actually not at all at NECCC in Amherst, MA. There was really no time between presentations, book signings, visiting friends and spending time at vendor’s booths, all of which was most enjoyable.
However, in Geneva, things were a bit different. Although a “school” situation, it functioned pretty much like one of our Visual Artistry workshops: morning shoot, process time, class time/critiques, evening shoot. It was my first time back to Geneva in 8 years! It really didn’t seem like it as everything seemed so familiar, but it was.
This year, we dug a little deeper into the local scene with the help and advice of several friends. After record snow falls, this was the highest water level in 80 years! We found a lot of cool stuff to photograph and creatively process. Actually, enough cool stuff to run a Finger Lakes Visual Artistry workshop in the spring of 2016, so please watch this space as we firm up details and exact dates. This is a particularly image rich area that I’ve wanted to explore for years and look forward to at least 1 visit later this year to scout deeper into the area.
Here’s a small gallery of images from Geneva and the surrounding Finger Lakes region:
This is only a small sample of what’s available to photograph, but it does require a little driving and extra scouting on our end, but we really look forward to getting our Finger Lakes workshop on the schedule soon. Please email Sue if you would like to be placed on our email notification list.
After the normal flurry of last minute work, we’ll be heading to the Palouse for our second fall harvest workshop next week.
Thanks for taking the time and we’ll see ya online!
