Mill Creek Waterfalls and Lock 12
Cost : $100
Spots Remaining: 8


In this workshop, we will be traveling to Lock 12 in York County to capture some waterfalls, unique landscapes, and a dammed Susquehanna River. This course is intended for beginners, however, people of all skill levels are welcome.

In this workshop we’ll learn about the exposure triangle, basic landscape composition, shutter speed, color balance, types of natural lighting and open shade, and more! We’ll also use the varied landscapes along the Susquehanna to illustrate and practice composition and the basics of landscape photography exposure. There will be a combination of one-on-one instruction, group learning, and printed guides
