All the details for the Fall in Ontario Landscape Photography Masterclass have been finalized. Masterclass will be held on Saturday, October 8th, 2011 in Muskoka, Ontario, at multiple locations. The masterclass will be led by two instructors – myself and my colleague Andrew Maidanik. Masterclass will begin at sunrise and will end at sunset, for a total duration of approximately 14 hours.
Rainbow over Muskoka, Ontario
Fall in Ontario, is by far, the most beautiful time of the year! And what else could be more quintessentially Canadian than forests full of red maple leafs? Every Canadian photographer’s portfolio should include such shots, since we are extremely lucky to live in such unique geographic location where such amazing bright colours are possible.
This will be an unforgettable, educational and adventurous experience, workshop is a real treat for any landscape photographer. The group will travel to Muskoka, Ontario in two passenger vans, leaving Toronto at 3 A.M. to catch the sunrise, and then will travel to several most scenic Muskoka locations, finishing with sunset shots and coming back to Toronto around 9 P.M. We will shoot from amazing lookout points, catch fall colours reflected in the rapids and learn techniques of photographing the waterfalls.
The masterclass will be held in a very similar manner as all our workshops and masterclasses – with very detailed explanations and instructions of how to create great shots that will become centerpieces of your portfolio. We will share not only the secret locations, unknown even to most locals, but also many techniques that will help you take the landscape shots that you will absolutely be proud of!
Locations have been scouted very wisely taking into consideration the amount of equipment we have to carry. The group won’t have to do much walking - we will drive up to shooting locations as close as possible.
For this masterclass you will need:
- DSLR with a wide angle lens (14-24 or 12-24 and/or 17-35 and/or 24-70m)
- 70-200 or 70-300 is strongly recommended
- Polarizing filter
- Coking filter holder with ND graduated filter
- Remote control is strongly recommended
- Lots of storage space

Do not miss this incredible opportunity, as this masterclass can only be held once a year. There is a very short window of opportunity for the most vivid fall colours, literally only one week when colours are the best before the leafs fall down. The group is strictly limited to 12 students - 6 passengers in each van.
