Event Details

Albert EinsteinIf you live in the DC area and have cabin fever from 5 days of snow, don't get mad, get even with Mother Nature! Come down Saturday morning to capture the beautiful mantle of snow she has laid down in the center of the nation's capital: Lafayette Park and the White House!

This new "photo Snowfari" (thanks to client Cayce Ramey for this clever title!) will take you through Lafayette Park and the White House area just after a record-breaking winter snowstorm, one of the prettiest scenes you will ever capture in your camera.

Architectural photographer and Washington Photo Safari director E. David Luria will conduct this spontaneous workshop in snow photography, showing you how use your camera’s white balance, ISO and and exposure settings to get some gorgeous photos of the soft snow settled gently on the shoulders of the Andrew Jackson statue, with the White House and Washington Monument in the background, how to capture the snow-covered scenes of the nearby Hay Adams Hotel, St. Johns Church, the Old Executive Office Building, and the American Red Cross building, in color OR in black and white, photos that can look as if they were taken in a previous century. We will also take you on the grounds of the Red Cross building to see the poignant "Motherland" statue by Armenian sculptor Federic Saboygan, depicting a mother shielding her baby boy from the devastation of an earthquake.

Bring your camera, all its lenses, a circular polarizing filter, and dress warmly. If you bring a red or yellow umbrella, your fellow Safarians will be indebted to you for the lovely color accent your umbrella will bring to their photos!
