Workshop for adventurous outdoor photographers also looking to have some relaxing soaking time.
Saturday morning head east to the Gila River Valley near Safford. After establishing your campsite, professional photographer and “soaker” Michael Madsen will take you on a tour of the property. Sign up for sunrise and sunset photography walks. Be prepared to mount your camera on a tripod and switch your camera to manual and learn how to take charge of your camera. Our goal is to provide personal instruction and teach techniques for improving your photography skills in manual mode.
“Big Pool”
An overnight Hot Springs experience not to be missed by the avid outdoors photographer.
This one of a kind photography workshop will take place in the most beautiful and private hot springs in all of Arizona, so secret that the exact location will not be revealed until you have arrived! This private hot spring has 6 geothermal pools with temperatures ranging from the 90’s to over 110 degrees. The setting is in the Gila River Valley near Mount Graham and the accommodations are rustic. Kitchen and restrooms are provided and you will be responsible for your own food, camping gear and transportation. If camping is not your style, but you are still interested, lodging is available in nearby Safford.
