read what they have to say about North Carolina Photo Safaris

I have been trying to find time to call and say how much I enjoyed the photo weekend. As you know, I have been on dozens of photo weekends and each trip my goal is to concentrate on either learning or improving a certain facet of photography. This weekend I was determined to try and absorb all I could on HDR. When we went to the bridge and you saw I was having trouble with the concept and came over and set up beside me and we went thru it together, it meant everything to me. HDR is not that hard once you have all the parts and showing me the work flow turned the light bub on for me. I got it now. Look at the two HDR's I just sent you from the lake in front of my house. I have read three books on HDR and 15 min with you looking over my shoulder was what put the puzzle together for me. I got my monies worth at the bridge.

I enjoyed the trip immensely. I learned more about my camera and photography in one weekend with Chris than I have in 3 years owning it. Chris knew all the best locations to photograph waterfalls that were off the beaten path and allowed us all the time we wanted to shoot them. He was extremely knowledgeable of the area, had a great timetable put together and was easy to work with. The group of people he brought made me feel right at home and were eager to share their stories and their expertise as well. Thanks to all for making the trip a memorable one. I’m looking forward to the next excursion!

I want to thank you for a great North Carolina Waterfalls and Foliage safari trip this past weekend.
The weather was perfect. It was truly AWESOME. I think Courthouse Falls should be on everyone's "must do" list.

Your trip to the Waterfalls of North Carolina was simply breathtaking!
I'm so proud of the images I was able to take and share with my family. (P.S. Thanks for demystifying the Circular Polarizer for me ;-) )
