Complete Workshop information and Fine Art Print sales are available on my website www.jackgrahamphoto.com
How lucky am I ???…I have met lots of great folks in the 16+ years of leading photo workshops. Many have become my friends and many have formed friendships together, outside of photography. I currently lead my own workshops, both in groups and in a One on One environment. In addition to leading workshops, I offer my Fine Art Prints for sale on my website. I’ve had images and articles in many publications and also sell images via stock photography as well. Partial credits include Nature’s Best Photography, Outdoor Photography, California Wild, and many DNR publications, Audubon, Nature Conservancy, Chicago Wilderness,Sierra Club publications, as well as many calendars. Corporate work includes prints and stock applications for internal as well as publication use. I am also on the writing staff for Landscape Photography Magazine, an outstanding online magazine http://landscapephotographymagazine.com/
I’ve been fortunate to have learned, observed and learned first hand with many of the masters of nature photography we all “in the business” have grown to admire. My “hero’s” are John Shaw, Art Wolfe, Galen Rowell and my dear friend Bill Fortney. Through these photographers and others I’ve taken the best of each and use this knowledge every time I am in the field photographing as well as conducting my workshops.I try to represent within my images an artful approach to what we are blessed to see in nature. My goal in photography is simply to make a better image tomorrow than I made today.
I use NIKON equipment exclusively. My workshops are sponsored by Think Tank, Singh Ray,Nik Software, Outdoor Photo Gear, F-Stop Gear Camera backpacks, Lensbabys, The Really Right Stuff, ,Hunt’s Photo & Video, Bob Hitchman’s Photograph America Newsletter.

Do you love PANORAMA images as much as I do? I am currently using the new M1-L Modular Panoramic Tripod Head from NODAL NINJA. This, as well as all their systems solves parallax problems which are inherent when shooting images side by side!
! http://www.nodalninja.com/ .
Once a camera is properly mounted on a pano head the photographer is able to take multiple images, horizontally and/or vertically, without any subsequent parallax error. Parallax, simply put, is the apparent shifting of objects in the foreground to the background. There is a point inside every lens called the No Parallax Point (NPP). The proper technical term is “entrance pupil” but many refer the NPP as the nodal point, hence Nodal Ninja.
Eliminating parallax is key when needing to “seamlessly” stitch adjoining images together to form a single composite. From as little as 2 shots across the horizon, to dozens or hundreds of multi image shots, photographers are able to produce stunning mosaics and full 360 x 180 degree interactive panoramas. Nodal Ninja is a valuable tool for any photographer’s camera bag. Learn more about panoramic photography.
