Two more exciting workshops scheduled on Palomar Mountain.  Come and join us!

Outdoor and Nature Photography Workshop on Palomar Mountain
Saturday, June 5 •  5:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Join veteran nature and landscape photographers Ernie and Kati Cowan for an exciting day of shooting and learning on a private mountain ranch on Palomar Mountain. The day begins early when you will learn how to capture the subtle pastels of a mountain sunrise over a scenic lake. Following breakfast on your own we will travel a short distance to a serene mountain meadow that we will have all to ourselves.

In this natural classroom, participants will join in workshops on nature and landscape photography, macro techniques and outdoor portraiture. You will have plenty of time for individual shooting as well as one-on-one time with instructors. The focus of this class is to take you beyond snapshots and to expand your creativity as a photographic artist.

Per Donna Dose

Many thanks to Donna and her crew who have volunteered to make this a wonderful and yummy event for many, many years!  Thanks Donna! 

Thanks also to Mike Pique for the photos I captured off his www.palomarmountain.com

Free to a good home! Working 21″ Sony Trinitron CRT computer monitor. I will haul it as far as the Palomar Lodge from out on Birch Hill. Please note! This thing is VERY heavy. Rick Hazlet 760-742-3552, evenings

The free firewood at Tom’s message I put out this morning is all spoken for.  However, if you would like to cut your own, this is the perfect time and there is lots of downed wood available – for free!  I will connect you directly with the property owners and you can have at it.
