"I just wanted to thank you for a terrific photo workshop weekend. You're a fountain of knowledge; your energy and enthusiasm is infectious, and I was most impressed by the amount of energy and organization you invested in the class. I don't think I'll forget to "follow the light."  It was exciting, challenging, and humbling."

tatshenshini_alske_river rafting_alaska_photo_workshops_alsek lake_glacier bay national parkThe Tatshenshini-Alsek has long been regarded as North America's most spectacular river. On this remarkably visual journey, trip participants can will have opportunites to photograph fields of wildflowers, mammorth icebergs, immense serpentine glaciers, eagles soaring overhead, and Alaskan brown bears fishing for salmon. The trip ends with rafters floating around phantasmagorically-sculpted iridescent icebergs calved into Alsek Lake with majestic Mt. Fairweather (15,325 feet) looming above them.

Jimmy Katz has been leading groups down this river since 1978 and as the photography instructor and one of the river guides will assist imagemakers working in both film and digital in their pursuit of the timeless image.
