Colorado Photography Festival ™ The 2nd Annual Colorado Photography Festival will be held from August 11-16, 2012. Eight of the nation's premier photographers will give instruction in the classroom and in the field on numerous aspects of professional photography, from capturing your images to optimizing them in Lightroom. This year's instructors are Marc Muench, Grant Collier, Colby Brown, Mark S Johnson, Stephen G Weaver, Russ Burden, Glenn Randall, and Dan Ballard. The indoor classes at this festival will take place at the Auraria campus in downtown Denver. On Saturday, August 11, five of the instructors will give talks on a different theme related to photography. On Sunday, each instructor will lead a workshop with up to 12 participants at one of the many scenic locations around Denver. Participants who sign up early will have their choice of any of the eight workshops. There will also be optional classes people can join from Monday thru Thursday. On Monday, Marc Muench will offer a class on Adobe Lightroom, and he will also lead a 3-day field workshop from Tuesday to Thursday in Rocky Mountain National Park. This festival is open to photographers of all skill levels. The cost to register for this festival is $125.
