Travel Photography – Create a Lifetime of Journeys

Anyone who has read National Geographic, watched the Discovery Channel, spent time in a movie theater, read a book – has mental images of places, people and cultures throughout the world. Travel transforms these mental pictures into something real, and photography brings them home.

In his presentation, Dan will entertain, educate, and inspire in this journey we call life and photography. He will lead us on a visual journey through some of our most amazing places, discuss how to create powerful imagery, and leave you with the desire to get out, discover, and photograph in this wonderful world of ours.

Dan will talk about travel photography: people, cultures, place, landscape, nature; and a bit about trip planning, gear, processing, showing; and more.

Climb aboard that magic carpet and take a voyage! Nepal, Africa, Bolivia, Alaska or Indio – the destination doesn’t matter – just go! Take your camera along and add to your own Lifetime of Journeys!
