SUMMARY:Online: Personal Vision Series- A Sense of Peace
DESCRIPTION:Introductory Presentation Tuesday April 1st\, 7pm EST\nImage Review – 2 Options! Tuesday April 15th or Wednesday April 16th\, 7pm EST \nJoin Hunt’s Photo Education as we help grow your knowledge\, creativity\, and artistic expression with our expanded Personal Vision Series. These classes are designed to provide you time\, opportunity\, and guidance in shaping your creative photographic voice. We will give an overview on a specific topic in an online class session\, then give you time to go into the field by yourself (or with someone else\, if you choose) to complete an assignment based on that topic. We will reconvene a few days later for an online image review to discuss elements of your images.\nThe Personal Vision Series is a crossroads of many different ideas that we offer with Hunt’s Photo Education: Topic-based instruction/classes\, Photo Walks\, & Image Reviews. However\, unlike a Photo Walk where we will all take a certain direction\, for the “Walk” portion\, you will be asked to journey out on your own to photograph. This will cause you to be the driving force of your creativity and vision!\nThis month’s topic is “A Sense of Peace”. We will have an instructional online presentation on the first date and will reconvene for our Image Review on the second date. You will have that time period in between to photograph and edit our assignment. Your personal creative voice is critical to your growth as a photographer and as an artist. Join us for to help grow that voice!

SUMMARY:Hunt's Photo Adventure: Costa Rica
DESCRIPTION:Workshop Description \nLocated along the Pacific coast of Costa Rica\, the Osa Peninsula is renowned for its remote location and rugged bio-diversity.  More than half of Costa Rica’s native species of wildlife can be found here in the abundant rainforests\, on picturesque beaches\, and along a nearby river.   Each day\, we will depart from our spectacular accommodations at Botanika to photograph the colorful life found in and around the rainforest.  Mammals (including monkeys)\, reptiles\, birds\, and plant life will be our subjects during daily excursions around the peninsula via hiking\, a van\, and a specially equipped pontoon boat.  The Costa Rican Rainforest will be a challenging\, but highly rewarding experience for all that attend. \n  \nDaily Excursions: \nEach day\, we will set out to photograph nature and wildlife around the Osa Peninsula.  Natural history guides from the resort will assist us in locating wildlife and interesting subjects.  Each guide is native to the area and experts at what they do.  Whether we set off on foot\, in the van\, or on the boat\, the guides will do all the can to find subjects for us to photograph and put us in the best positions to do so.  Please note: Tips for the guides are NOT included in the pricing. \nGeneral Itinerary \n(Itinerary Note: The itinerary for each Photo Adventure is developed far in advance of our arrival. Occasionally\, changes that out of our control may occur. weather\, road conditions\, safety concerns\, or other circumstances may force a change of plans. The trip leader will be responsible to consider and implement any necessary changes. Any additional costs incurred because of changes will be the responsibility of each attendee. Refunds will not be issued as a result of itinerary changes.) \nApril 5 – Arrive via Flights from USA to San Jose\, Costa Rica (NOT included in pricing) where we will be shuttled to our hotel for the day/evening. Rooms and accommodations are already made and included in pricing \nApril 6 – Leave San Jose early morning via plane for Puerto Jiminez where we will be shuttled to our resort\, the Botanika.

Final Dinner \nApril 12 – Morning flight to San Jose. Flights back to United States CANNOT be earlier than 11am. \n  \nWhat’s included in the workshop: \n• Transfers from airport in San Jose to Hilton Garden Inn hotel for the night of April 5\, 2024 \n• First night lodging at Hilton Garden Inn in San Jose; six nights accommodation at Botanika \n• Internal flight from San Jose to Puerto Jimenez (round-trip) \n• All meals and non-alcoholic drinks at Botanika \n• All excursions and park fees \n• All guide services and photography instruction \nWhat’s not included in the workshop: \n• Roundtrip ticket to San Jose\, Costa Rica (arriving on April 5th) from your location \n• If you choose to arrive early and stay late in San Jose any costs are assumed by the attendee. \n• Gratuities for guide and resort staff \n• Any alcoholic drinks at Botanika \n  \nSkill Sets: All Levels of Photographers are Welcome \nPhysical Activity:  Overall this Photo Adventure will be relatively easy.  We will walk up to 2 miles per day on trails and beaches in humid\, wet conditions.   Footwear and clothing should be appropriate for forest and beach walking. \n  \nRecommended Camera Gear: This Photo Adventure is geared toward those using DSLR or Mirrorless cameras with interchangeable lenses\, but all cameras are welcome! \n• If possible\, bring at least 2 camera bodies (If you are looking for a camera or lens to rent\, you can rent it from us at rentals.huntsphoto.com!) Two camera bodies allows for less changing of lenses in rainforest conditions. \n• You must have a long telephoto lens! Our primary subjects will be birds and wildlife. We recommend either a 100-400mm lens (or equivalent) for birds in flight\, a 500mm lens or longer for birds and wildlife\, or both! \n• Landscape opportunities will be available in the forest and on the beaches. Consider 16-35 or 24-70mm (or equivalent) for landscapes and general purpose \n• A fixed\, fast lens such as a 50mm (or equivalent) is suggested for portrait opportunities or general photography \n• We will also have macro opportunities\, such as bugs\, frogs\, snakes\, etc.  A 100mm macro is fine for general purpose macro photography\, but something longer such as a 180mm is best for frogs and snakes. We do NOT suggest a 60mm (or less) macro lens\, as it will cause you to get too close to reptiles. \n• Consider bringing a circular polarizing filter (CPL) and neutral density (ND) filters. \n• A tripod is recommended for long exposures. \n• Due to the inclement weather we may experience\, a rain cover for your camera and a weather-resistant camera bag (backpack style) are recommended. \n• Other Accessories may include flash for low light\, fill light\, and to stop action and a Better Beamer (or similar) flash extender. \n• Consider bringing your laptop and external hard drive for transferring daily photos. \n• Extra batteries and lots of memory cards are always encouraged. \nImportant things to keep in mind: \n• Conditions will be wet and humid.  Lightweight pants\, shirts\, undergarments\, and socks are recommended. It is highly recommended to bring quick drying\, wicking undergarments (tshirts and underwear). A light raincoat (for you and your camera\, see above “rain covers”) will be extremely important\, as will waterproof hiking shoes/boots. \n• A hat and sunglasses are always recommended\, and you may also consider bringing sandals. \n• Make sure to bring bug spray and sunscreen \n\n  \nTravel Information: \nEach participant is responsible to book and pay for their own flights to and from San José in Costa Rica.  Each participant must arrive on April 5th and leave NO EARLIER than 11am on April 12th.   ***** PLEASE HEED THE DEPARTURE TIME.  If you choose to arrive earlier than April 5th or stay later than April 12th\, it is the personal and financial responsibility of each participant to secure housing\, etc. \nResort Information: \nOur accommodations will be at the Hotel Botanika.  Each guest will have their own room.  A key factor of comfort aside from the beautiful rooms and resort is that our rooms are air conditioned!  After a full day of photography in the humid conditions of the rainforest your air conditioned room will feel great!  Our food choices in the hotel restaurant will feature an assortment of salads\, pastas\, fresh seafood (Botanika is right ON the coast!)\, meats\, and sandwiches.  Please advise of any special dietary needs beforehand and we will work with the hotel kitchen to ensure your comfort.   All of your meals are included.  The hotel hosts a pool and a spa for relaxing during down time. \nPayments\nA non-refundable reservation fee of $1700 is required upon sign-up to secure a spot.

SUMMARY:Hunt's Photo Walk: Charles River Museum of Industry & Innovation
DESCRIPTION:The Charles River Museum of Industry is currently housed in what is considered the first ever factory in America. In Waltham\, the closed factory now plays the role of housing a history of the tools and machinery used in industry. This walk is an excellent chance to photograph the grit of the previous centuries under the Industrial Revolution\, and is a chance to work in low-light environments where the lighting sources cannot be controlled and focus on macro photography. Join us for a wonderful experience!

SUMMARY:Hunt's Photo Walk: Low Light at The Longfellow Bridge
DESCRIPTION:Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a night photo walk featuring the Longfellow Bridge. During the walk\, we will discuss many of the aspects of photographing in low-light and at night\, including exposure\, focusing\, composition\, and more. Photographers of all levels are welcome!\nThe Longfellow Bridge\, sometimes referred to as the “salt and pepper bridge” due to the shaker-like shape of the bridge pillars\, connects Boston’s Beacon Hill district with Kendall Square in Cambridge. The bridge has stood for over a century\, with major upgrades and renovations only occurring in the early 2010s. In late 2018\, the bridge was enhanced with new LED lighting\, bringing stunning new views to this unique structure. On this walk\, we will spend time photographing the Longfellow Bridge and Boston from numerous angles\, making use of evening light\, civil twilight\, and night time.
