I'll be teaching: An intro to Travel Photography, Developing a Website: A Tool for Self Promotion, Digital Photography Techniques, Travel Photography: Field Techniques, Making Photography Your Day Job, Travel Photography: Getting Into Print and other topics. From the Book Passage website: "The Book Passage Travel Writers & Photographers Conference has an extraordinary reputation among publishers, editors, and writers. Alumni have published books, articles, and photos -- many as the direct result of lessons learned and contacts made at the conference. There is no finer travel writing conference anywhere in the world. The Conference offers an array of workshops, panels, and evening activities. There are many hours of informal interaction between faculty and students during lunch and in discussions that often last late into the evening." ]]> http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/08/teaching_at_2008_book_passage.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/08/teaching_at_2008_book_passage.html Thu, 14 Aug 2008 01:55:17 +0000 I was recently in Alaska doing aerial photography of the Alaska Range to supply Denali National Park with a larger image library as a resource for climbers and rescuers. This photo is of the West Buttress Route on Denali taken from 24,000 feet in a Cessna 206. I had O2 for the flight, but even with o2, heading to 24K unacclimatized is a wild experience; I don't remember much from this flight! Thanks to the best photography shop in the Bay Area, Keeble and Schuchat, for their support of the project. It was their Canon 1ds Mark III and 24-105 lens that made this photo - one of my favorites from the shoot. ]]> http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/08/aerial_photography_of_the_alas.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/08/aerial_photography_of_the_alas.html Thu, 07 Aug 2008 21:04:06 +0000 I have a Tasmania photo gallery up along with many of the other Adobe Photoshop Adventure crew. Additionally, Digital Railroad Marketplace is featuring the photographers from the adventure on their blog, as well as hosting our images from Tasmania. You can also win a free trip to Tasmania, no strings attached! There aren't too many people signed up at this point, so the chances are about as good as they get for a sweepstakes like this. ]]> http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/05/tasmania_gallery_posted.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/05/tasmania_gallery_posted.html Fri, 16 May 2008 23:21:59 +0000 Photographer Gerald Bybee and I pulled off organizing a very informative session last night in San Francisco. I work on the board with the local chapter of the American Society of Media Photographers. The ASMP seems a bit behind the times when it comes to the massive changes associated with the explosion on the web that are dramatically altering the photo industry and indeed the very fabric of our culture! So it was exciting to get the general counsel of ASMP and the VP of Creative Commons, along with some other well known lawyers to discuss the new world of Copyright 2.0 in a Hyper Digital Age.]]> http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/04/photographer_gerald_bybee_and.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/04/photographer_gerald_bybee_and.html Fri, 18 Apr 2008 20:27:30 +0000 I am shooting in Tasmania as part of a project spearheaded by photographer, writer and technologist Mikkel Aaland. The project is described on the O'Reilly website as "a group of internationally renowned photographers will travel to the end of the world, literally, to the remote island of Tasmania. Their mission is to road test specialized digital photography software designed by Adobe while capturing images from one of the world's most mysterious and varied geographic locations" ]]> http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/04/jeff_in_tasmania_road_testing.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/04/jeff_in_tasmania_road_testing.html Sat, 05 Apr 2008 20:16:41 +0000 See the tear sheets here Read the article here]]> http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/01/hawaii_on_a_dime.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/01/hawaii_on_a_dime.html Sun, 27 Jan 2008 22:37:43 +0000 Lightroom Mastery Wednesday, January 23 Monday, February 4 6-10 pm In my opinion, with Adobe's Lightroom, I feel that photographers finally have a sophisticated and time-saving software tool that matches the challenges, new demands and opportunities of digital photography. Lightroom is 95% of what I use these days for post production and organization of a shoot. In this workshop, participants will learn how to use Lightroom efficiently and effectively for the post production RAW workflow from import images from a camera, organization, captioning and keywording in the Library module, to advanced color correction, spot removal, sharpening and more in the Develop module to publishing webpages in the Web module. http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/01/jeff_pflueger_leads_lightroom.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2008/01/jeff_pflueger_leads_lightroom.html Fri, 11 Jan 2008 22:25:35 +0000 Read more about the event and the booth here.]]> http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2007/09/jeff_pflueger_photo_media_at_p.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2007/09/jeff_pflueger_photo_media_at_p.html Fri, 28 Sep 2007 22:21:39 +0000 The ASMPNorCal Quarterly has a nice profile about my work and some of my recent photography from Syria and Lebanon - including an image of the ruins of Palmyra on the cover.

Both areas were pounded by Israel 8 months ago in the July 2006 war. http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2007/04/in_lebanon.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2007/04/in_lebanon.html Mon, 16 Apr 2007 17:00:25 +0000 Jeff is in Syria photographing the Iraqi refugee crisis in the country. It is estimated that Syria has absorbed 1.5 million Iraqis fleeing their country. 1.5 million represents 8% of the total population of Syria. http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2007/04/in_syria.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2007/04/in_syria.html Sun, 01 Apr 2007 16:56:24 +0000 Route 89 doles out a greatest-hits sampling of iconic US landscapes. "It takes you to some of the national parks' most spectacular spots, but our favorite sites were discovered in between," says writer Sundeen (above, left), who drove the 1,700-mile byway with photographer Pflueger (above, right) for our feature. "Stanton was the moment for me," Pflueger says, of an odd little Arizona encampment they came across. "To meet people reinhabiting a ghost town and playing out their gold-mining dreams in the desert was like seeing the Old West come alive."]]> http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2007/03/national_geographic_adventure.html http://jeffpflueger.com/mt/news/2007/03/national_geographic_adventure.html Tue, 20 Mar 2007 00:45:49 +0000
