LINVILLE â Visitors are invited to take their photography skills to the next level â 5,280 feet above sea level, to be exact â at the Grandfather Mountain Photography Weekend.
Due to COVID-19 and ongoing renovation to the Grandfather Mountain Nature Museum, the nonprofit nature parkâs annual Nature Photography Weekend and Camera Clinic have been combined into one event for 2021, taking place the weekend of Aug. 14-15.
Participants will be able to participate in a series of interactive field courses presented by professional photographers, including Vinny Colucci, Kyle Cook, Jamie Davidson, Bill Fortney, Melissa Southern, Tony Sweet and Tommy White, while photographing spectacular scenery and native animals before and after regular business hours, meaning opportunities for sunrise and sunset photography will also be offered. The annual Nature Photography Weekend photo contest will also return.
