Fotobug, Elusive Image - Episode 6

Discussion about upcoming Photo workshops and tours as well as regional photo seminars such as the South Dakota Shootout featuring keynote speaker, George Lepp.  Where do you want to go, write and let us know what your ideal trip would be and where you would like to go.  Upcoming workshops include South Dakota Cowboys, Into the Everglades, Costa Rica and even Mongolia! The website to register for the Black Hills Photo Shootout is BLACK HILLS PHOTO SHOOTOUT . From a listener question on removing water from a tripod, we present a video interview with photographer RJ Wiley who invented the DRY POD WADERS.  The waders slip over your tripod legs and keep the water out!  Available from www.birdsasart.com. The Ansel Adams negatives turned out to be taken by someone's Uncle Earl - and not Ansel, despite the six month validation and confirmation.  Jim and Fred feel vindicated for being skeptical in the last podcast.
