SUMMARY:Hunt's Photo Adventure: Autumn in New Orleans & The Louisiana Bayou
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Description \nHunt’s Photo Adventure leaders Bob Fletcher and Jeff Swinger invite you to a unique Photo Adventure to New Orleans & the Louisiana Bayou. The trip will have a variety of subjects\, from street photography and architecture to wildlife and swampy landscapes!\nThe first two days we will be exploring New Orleans’s French Quarter\, Bourbon Street\, the Garden District\, and the Gothic above-ground cemetery that you have seen so often on television and in movies. You will be photographing architecture and street performers\, riding on a historic streetcar\, and enjoying the warm ambiance of New Orleans. \nThe rest of the days\, prepare yourself for an adventure through the swamps and bayous of Louisiana. You will embark on your journey in a custom-built vessel with a covered roof to keep you dry and cool. Tours are narrated by Capt. Billy Gaston\, who was born and raised in the Bayou. Toilet facilities are available on board the boat with special attention given to seniors and the physically challenged. \nThe cypress swamps of Louisiana are beautifully scenic\, but can be difficult to photograph without a boat to access most of the photogenic areas and an experienced guide to get you there. Photographing out of boats\, you will be shooting mostly handheld.  Wildlife like egrets\, herons\, turtles\, snakes\, owls\, and alligators can be common sightings in the swamp. You will want to bring a variety of focal lengths from wide angle to telephoto to get the most out of your trip. Early November to mid-December is the best time to be in the swamps. Wildlife is preparing for winter and is active and abundant. The cypress trees can take on a rusty appearance and fog can be common in the mornings. \n \nItinerary\nThis photography workshop begins in New Orleans\, where we’ll immerse ourselves in the energy and character of the French Quarter. From historic streets and iconic architecture to street performers and classic New Orleans flavors\, the city provides endless opportunities for storytelling and candid photography\, both day and night. We’ll explore at a relaxed pace\, focusing on capturing the spirit and visual rhythm of the Quarter. \n  \nMidway through the trip\, we head south to Morgan City and into the heart of Louisiana’s bayou country. Here\, the focus shifts to wildlife and landscape photography as we explore winding waterways by boat with a local Cajun guide. Cypress trees\, moss-draped swamps\, and native wildlife—including alligators and birdlife—create a completely different visual experience. Sunrise and afternoon sessions allow us to work in the best light\, with time built in for image review and post-processing discussions. One day includes a catered Southern Low Country shrimp boil lunch in the bayou\, paired with live local musicians for entertainment—an authentic Cajun experience between shooting sessions. The workshop concludes with a relaxed return to New Orleans for departures. \n\n  \nWhat’s included: \n\nIn-field instruction throughout the entire workshop\nPost-production time using Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop\nImage reviews and critiques\, as requested\nAll local vehicle transportation and tour boat transportation with our local guide\nLocal Cajun guide and boat captain\, born and raised in the bayou\n\nWhat’s not included: \n\nFlight and baggage to and from New Orleans\nLodging\nMeals\nTips to our local guide and Cajun musicians\nTrip insurance\, which is recommended for any Hunt’s Photo Adventure\n\nSkill Sets: All Levels of Photographers are Welcome\nPhysical Activity: Low to Mild\, mostly just walking \nIn this workshop we will cover: \n\nTracking Focus\nExposure\nComposition\nMetering\nUse of Lenses\nSubject Development\nCreative Thinking\nShooting in Low Light\n\n  \nRecommended gear: \nCamera(s)\, plenty of memory cards and camera batteries\nWide angle\, standard\, and telephoto lenses (If you are looking for a lens to rent\, you can rent it from us at rentals.huntsphoto.com!)\nTripod and/or monopod\nPolarizers and Neutral Density filters\nSunscreen\, bug repellent \nTravel information to MSY\nArrive by Nov. 2nd before 11:00 am.  At 11:00 am on Nov. 2nd there will be a group pick-up at Louis Armstrong Int’l Airport (MSY).  You will be returned to MSY by 1:00 pm on Nov. 7th for your flight home.  If these dates and/or times do not work for you\, consider coming in a day earlier or staying a day later. \nHotel information \nLodging is not included in the cost of this Adventure.

The remaining balance is due 60 days before the start of the workshop. We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance for any Hunt’s Photo Adventure in case you need to cancel.
