INSIDE: NEW CAMERA, NEW LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES
Image item
Hello First name / Friend,
 
I am just back from an incredible trip to Mallorca, and I'm excited to share a little about that experience. I took my new OMSYSTEMS OM-3 with me on the trip as my only camera, and the freedom it offered me was pretty great. I share about that and the trip in general in my newest Notebook post.
 
When I left my hometown for Mallorca, we were experiencing a wonderfully prolonged spring here in Virginia - cool temperatures, and plenty of rain, and I was really loving it. In Mallorca it was much warmer, to the point that I was longing for the cool dampness I'd left behind me in Virginia. Sadly, it was all over when we returned, and it's most certainly summer here now. Summer always seems to come too quickly for me. It's not my favorite time of the year. But I do try to enjoy the beauty it offers, and I always look forward to visiting the high elevations in July and August to see the Joe Pye Weed blooming and the butterflies frolicking. So bring on the summer!
 
This month I have just a few things to share with you, so look below for updates on new products, pro photo tips, and a webinar and a summer bash coming up this week.
 
New news in this edition includes:
  • Reminder: Webinar with Nature Photography Collective
  • Trip Report - Mallorca with an OM-3
  • Announcement: New Print Product Line at New River Gorge National Park
  • Horizons Photography Conference Summer Bash!
  • Guest Blog Post
 
MORE BELOW ON EACH OF THESE TOPICS
 
Lastly, if you've considered purchasing my ebooks or working with me in person, I encourage you to consider doing so soon as I am currently reviewing my pricing and expect to increase prices at some point this year. Click below to get in before prices go up.
 
Limited remaining spots available for 2025 mentoring and workshops - early booking recommended.
 
I'll be sending another edition of FIELD NOTES next month. Until then, I hope you are able to get outside and connect with the many things this season has to offer!
