INTRODUCTION

During this South Dakota photography workshop, we will explore Badlands National Park and locations in the vicinity. Our days will begin at dawn to take advantage of the early morning light. Likewise, we will end each day’s activities at sunset. When the sun is low in the sky, the light accentuates the texture of the land. Colors warm and the contrast soft, so details are not hidden by the dark shadows present at noon-time. At dusk and dawn, animals are more active and easily located. We will reserve mid-days for rest, reflection, image transfer and traveling between locations. There will be a variety of photo opportunities including both spectacular scenery and plentiful wildlife.   

Sandy Zelasko, DBA Sandra Lee Photography is an authorized permittee with the National Park Service, US Fish & Wildlife and California State Parks and maintains a CUA for the purpose of field guided photography instruction.
