Waterfall Trek at Bushkill Falls!

October 20, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm

Fall is my favorite season to photograph in, and my favorite subject to photograph during this time is waterfalls. There’s just something magical about heading down a forested trail, walking among the trees displaying their beautiful array of colors, then coming upon a waterfall that is surrounded by this beauty! Pennsylvania has so many stunning waterfalls for us to explore and capture amazing images-although not all are easily reached. Bushkill Falls contains a great selection of different opportunities to capture waterfalls and lovely streams, while traveling along an intricate boardwalk system that takes you through the gorge.

Join us for a full day of capturing a great variety of images in one of PA’s most photogenic and well-known spots! No special skills required! We will begin with a class via Zoom a few days before the event to go over all the details-including suggested gear (wide angle to mid-range telephoto will do), settings to use, composition tips, filter use and more! The only additional and recommended gear is a sturdy tripod that allows you to adjust the legs at different angles individually (without a brace in the center keeping them from being extended upward on an individual bases), a circular polarizer for each lens you bring, and possibly a Neutral density filter to enable long exposures of the flowing water. Feel free to contact me in advance with questions or for gear suggestions.

There will also be a follow up editing and image review session following the event via Zoom.

Note: the falls trail is a series of boardwalks and stairs=some very steep. We will move at a leisurely pace from shooting spot to shooting spot, stopping along the way, but participants should be in reasonably good shape to enjoy the day.

We will meet at the main entrance to Bushkill Falls. Transportation to and from the event is the responsibility of participants. Admission to Bushkill Falls is NOT included in the trek fee.

A minimum number of participants is needed to run this event.
