Fine Focus Workshops Fall Foliage Workshop

We often receive requests to host a Fall Foliage Workshop. We have not done so before

now, largely because of the scarcity and high price of accom-modations in Vermont and

New Hampshire during �leaf peeping� season. This year we have secured accommodations

at Lopstick Lodge in Pittsburg, New Hampshire, at favorable rates, for arrival on Thursday,

September 28th and departure on Sunday, October 1.

Pittsburg is in New Hampshire�s Great North Woods, at the northernmost part of the state

bordered by Vermont, Quebec and Maine. This is largely a wilderness area, too far away

from "civilization" to appeal to most "leaf peepers," thus affording us a great opportunity

to photograph undisturbed. Virtually every kind of shooting for Eastern Land-scape

photography is available ... waterfalls, scenic lake vistas, interesting old barns and other

buildings, rock formations, etc. Those interested in wildlife will also be pleased: the road

from Pittsburg to Quebec is referred to locally as �Moose Alley,� and the lakes are full of

loons (hauntingly beautiful when you hear their calls at night).

We will start with an informal barbecue Thursday evening as people arrive. Friday and

Saturday we will shoot in two or three different locations each day, and Sunday one or two.

On one evening, Richard will lead a discussion of camera repair in the field. All formats are

welcome. As usual, Bruce, Richard and Ted will spend their time working with and helping

you in any way we can.

We have reserved accommodations for 11 participants in 3 three-bedroom cabins and 1

two-bedroom cabin, scattered around the First Connecticut Lake. These are modern, well

equipped lodgings ... rustic, but comfortable. All have satellite TV. We may be able to

handle two more participants if we act fast but accommodations are already very scarce.

Contact me or Bruce Barlow (BBarlow690@aol.com) or Richard Ritter (rr@lg4mat.net) for

details and additional information.
