I am heading to New Mexico early Sunday to teach a new 5-day class at the world famous Santa Fe Photographic Workshops: The Creative Eye: Digital Photography & Digital Darkroom Essentials. There's actually a few spots left, so if you're one to act on impulse and you're in the area and you have the time, think about joining me in "the City Different" for a week of photography, Southwest style, stunning landscapes and creative imaging.
The photo above was taken on my last trip there in the summer of 2007. This old train car has been a fixture in Santa Fe for years and I always love to stop by and admire its fine lines and retro styling (and take a few photos, of course!). The raw image was processed entirely in Lightroom, which is one of the areas we'll be covering during the workshop this coming week. The Before and After view, as seen in Lightroom, is below (click in the image for a larger cversion).
My aim is to try and post an image each day of the workshop (Monday through Friday), but sometimes during a workshop week the days are very full and we'll see how successful I am at keeping to that goal. After the class ends on Friday I'll be exploring New Mexico for a few additonal days in search of new vistas for my pinhole photography project, Artifacts of an Uncertain Origin.
