     July 12, 2008           Sarah P. Duke Gardens, Durham, NC

These gardens are among my very favorite to visit and photograph. There's always something happening here--rose gardens, terraced gardens overlooking a pond with water lilies and koi, an asiatic garden area and large garden devoted to native plants. We will spend the entire day exploring and photographing in these gardens--not nearly enough time to absorb the beauty and wonder of this special place. You'll leave wanting to carve out time to come back... even if you never take a single picture.

     August 16, 2008           Shackelford Banks & Beaufort, NC

On the morning of this workshop we will ferry over to the western end of Shackelford Banks (separate fee) and have the opportunity to photograph a wide variety of shells, wild Spanish mustangs, shorelines and other seaside treasures. The afternoon will be spent visiting different locations in Beaufort, including the waterfront and other historical areas.

     September 13, 2008           Hinnant Family Vineyards (Pine Level) & Howell Woods Environmental

                                                Learning Center (Four Oaks), NC

We will be visiting the vineyards at a peak time for photographing the grapes on the vine in early morning light as well as harvesting activities in this rural country crossroads area. After lunch we will turn our attention to the trails at Howell Woods Environmental Learning Center in Four Oaks which meander through diverse habitats and natural communities. Time and energy permitting, the Bentonville Battlegrounds provide a chance to visit the scene of the last major Confederate Offensive of the Civil War.

     October 25, 2008           Natural Wonders of Columbia & Tyrrell County, NC

Nestled along the Scuppernong River in Tyrrell County, Columbia is a quaint town on the edge of nature. We will begin the day photographing on the Scuppernong River Interpretive Boardwalk and along the waterfront in Columbia. After lunch, we will explore several other local areas that will provide opportunities to enjoy and appreciate the diversity of Tyrrell County's wildlife and nature.
