Los Angeles Times photographer Mark Boster created a remarkable photographic record of Yosemite National Park in four seasons. His photos are spectacular -- and he shares some details on how he got those pictures.
Now here’s a chance to learn from the pros how to capture the wonders of California’s signature park. Canon and the American Park Network are sponsoring free photography workshops three times a day to take you around Yosemite and get you snapping.
The deal: The Photography in the Parks program includes free photo and video workshops at 9 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and sunset (around 8 to 8:30 p.m.) at Glacier Point. Participants should show up 15 to 30 minutes before workshops begin to sign up. From Yosemite, the photo workshops move to other national parks over the rest of the summer.
When photo workshops will be:
--Friday through July 19 at Yosemite National Park (Curry Village and Yosemite Lodge amphitheaters)
--July 23-31 at Yellowstone National Park’s Old Faithful Inn
--Aug. 1-2 at Grand Teton National Park/Jackson Hole
--Aug. 5-11 at Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado
--Aug. 18-29 at Acadia National Park in Maine
Details: Bring your own camera equipment or borrow from a selection of Canon cameras and camcorders during the workshops. Participants will be out in the field and then download images and even print some. All ages welcome.
