So, how will this workshop work?
Day 1 Sunday, 04/07/24
We will operate out of St. Louis and spend the day shooting and practicing for the Eclipse the next day.
Day 2 Monday, 04/08/24
We will meet and travel south for about an hour-and-a-half drive. You will need to have your own transportation, or you'll need to make arrangements with someone else attending the workshop. We will arrive with enough time to find a perfect spot to shoot the Eclipse. Afterward, we will work on some image capture techniques.
Day 3 Tuesday, 04/09/24
We will meet in a training room at the hotel to review the images from the day before and discuss how to make the most of them.
Day 4 Wednesday, 04/10/24
This day is open to either more post-production training or image capture, depending on the group's interests. At the end of the day, everyone will go their separate ways with the solemn promise to meet up again in 2044.
