Yukon River Photographer

The Whitehorse Photography Club's postponed workshop with Dave Brosha went ahead this month and it was well worth the wait, an inspiring weekend with an enthusiastic presenter. Minus 30° weather during the preceding week had us worried about the field session that was scheduled for the Sunday, but the gods were with us and come Sunday the temperature was up to about -5°C. Plus we were favoured with beautiful light at our shooting location by the Yukon River right at the edge of downtown Whitehorse. We were given a series of photographic assignments during the session. Dave Brosha is particularly well known for his photographs of people in the landscape, often as silhouettes, so in recognition of that I have chosen this image that I made that day for the current Feature Photo.
