Grandfather Mountain Camera Clinic

Jay Maisel, Bernie Boston, Hugh Morton and George Tames.  Four famous photographers in my book. I took this at the Southern Short Course in the 1980s.
In 1984 I graduated from East Carolina University and then went to work as a staff photographer for the Hickory Daily Record.  That year I would also go up to Grandfather Mountain for the Camera Clinic hosted by the mountain's owner Hugh Morton.

Hugh Morton was a photographer who enjoyed hosting this event each year for photographers.

This August 17 - 18, 2013 I am one of the guest speakers at the Camera Clinic.  You can register for the event starting on July 15th.

Here is a link to the event: http://www.grandfather.com/events/grandfather-mountain-camera-clinic/

I will be talking about the business side of photography.

This is where I first met Bill Fortney. Never know who else you might meet at events like this if you don't attend. If you are able to come I hope to see you there.

All comments are reviewed.This is done primarily to eliminate spamming. Please be patient, I maybe on assignment and unable to review right away.

But to increase meaningful conversation, sometimes it’s necessary to reduce the not-so-meaningful bits. Here are the kinds of things we’ve been deleting in recent posts. Please avoid these types of comments:

One-word comments like “Cool!” or “Thanks!” While we appreciate the congrats, we’d love to hear more about what exactly you love, and (even more importantly) why.

Shameless self-promotion. Comments that contain links to your site within the body or otherwise encourage folks to visit your blog are a no-no. If you’d like to increase traffic to your blog, there are other places than here to do that.

Multiple comments by one author. We’re glad you want to be engaged, but please give others a chance to speak, too.

Really long comments. Let’s just say that if you need to take more than three breaths to read your comment, it’s probably too long.
