I couldn&#8217;t learn as much as I did in this workshop on my own, if I worked hard for years.&#8221; &#8211; Besma A<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jim Doty&#8217;s workshop is excellent. Very down to earth and not so technical to the point of being intimidating.&#8221; &#8211; Steve S<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The amount and quality of information was more than I had hoped for.&#8221; &#8211; Alan M<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jim Doty gives the most warm, intense, wonderful photographic digital workshop. He is truly a gift to those who choose to attend.&#8221; &#8211; Win M<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I really had no idea how much you could manipulate a camera to get such great images without using Photoshop. I found it amazing!&#8221; &#8211; Melissa D<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11849\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/140926-field-trip-RMNP-5D3-2518-w73.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11849\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11849\" title=\"Photo Field Trip, Rocky Mountain National Park\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/140926-field-trip-RMNP-5D3-2518-w73.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11849\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Moraine Park at twilight.

Thank you so much for teaching us so much with such enthusiasm.&#8221; &#8211; Pat D<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I had NO IDEA my camera was capable of so much.&#8221; &#8211; Vickie R<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Great Workshop! I can use your material to quickly become a better photographer.&#8221; &#8211; Jim T<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Your workshop renewed and re-excited my interest in photography. I have some new ideas and ways to &#8216;up my game&#8217;.&#8221; &#8211; Don M<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Jim&#8217;s workshop showed me the way to put my DSLR&#8217;s features to use and the advantages of knowing why and how they function. Easy to follow and understand.&#8221; &#8211; Gene S<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hi Jim &#8211; I can&#8217;t wait to get to get out into the field and put what I learned into practice. As you say, Happy Shooting!&#8221; &#8211; Becky W<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I began to read every book about photography that I could get my hands on. I also enrolled in a nature photography class taught by Jim Doty. Jim&#8217;s class proved incredibly helpful, covering many specific techniques employed by professional photographers that weren&#8217;t in any of the dozens of books I owned. Jim&#8217;s class helped me to develop technically, and the results were instantly apparent.&#8221; &#8211; Jeremy B<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11845\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/140927-photo-workshop-5D3-2554-w71.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11845\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11845\" title=\"Photography Workshop, Estes Park Colorado.\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/140927-photo-workshop-5D3-2554-w71.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11845\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Exploration session.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/jimdoty.com\/About\/teaching\/CO-2016\/co-2016.html\">Total Immersion Photography Weekend in Colorado<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/jimdoty.com\/\">All my workshops<\/a><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11834\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/141001-dawn-Sprague-Lake-5D3-3278-w75.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11834\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11834\" title=\"141001-dawn-Sprague-Lake-5D3-3278-w7\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/141001-dawn-Sprague-Lake-5D3-3278-w75.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/141001-dawn-Sprague-Lake-5D3-3278-w75.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/141001-dawn-Sprague-Lake-5D3-3278-w75-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/141001-dawn-Sprague-Lake-5D3-3278-w75-449x300.jpg 449w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-11834\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dawn at Sprague Lake.
