Here are the images I made from Deception Pass State Park, Washington, Dec 2018/January 2019. Some of these images were created as part of the Leica Akademie USA: Monochrom Landscape with Philip Blair workshop, in conjunction with Leica Store Bellevue. This was a 2 1/2 day event, sold out with 12 participants, with the first and third day being meeting room instruction indoors, with the second day shooting in the field at Deception Pass State Park, about an hour and a half north of Seattle. Others of the image series I shot on two separate outings in Dec 2018.
Expecting varied weather at best, we were instead stunned with 60 degree, sunny weather. In January, no less. Sure enough, February would bring heavy snowstorms throughout the area. December 2017 brought sever windstorms. But January? Sunny and clear springlike conditions for the workshop event, surprise surprise.
Be sure to look up other events with Leica Akademie USA and Leica Store Bellevue. They’ve got something for everyone :) Thanks, guys, at the Store and Akademie USA, for the support and promotion of the event.
