Springtime in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a wondrous event! The wild mountain streams are flowing at their fullest and beautifully adorned with multitudes of native wildflowers. The diversity of plants in the Smokies is dazzling! Over 1500 species of flowering plants are found in the Park, more than in any other North American National Park. This workshop will focus on the flowers, tiny creatures that inhabit them and the landscape that they flourish in. Jerry and Clay will teach professional field techniques for macro, wide angle closeup, microcosm compositions, and flowers in the landscape. Both Jerry and Clay work as Conservation and Environmental Photographers, they will also touch on photographic opportunities in this field for today's nature photographer.
