Smoky Mountain Summits? \u00a0First smaller numbers means more personal attention, more meals and gatherings with everyone included. \u00a0Jack&#8217;s and my Workshops include intensive critque sessions and more time in the field working side by side with our groups. \u00a0Though this is a Fujifilm Summit, <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><strong>shooters of all brands are welcome and will benefit<\/strong><\/span>, and if you&#8217;re curious about the Fuji System this is a gerat place to get hands on experience with their gear, and we plan to have Fujifilm cameeras and lenses to loan to participants who wish to check them out!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-19699\"
