Deep in the southern United States lies an incredible connection of bayous, swampland, and wetlands. Often overlooked by photographers, these interconnected waterways provided some of the best and most unique fall photography anywhere.

The bayous in Texas and Louisiana are lined with cypress groves laced with Spanish Moss. In November, the groves ignite into a fiery red and orange, creating an amazing display for photographers.

But, that’s not all. The southern climate provides exquisite conditions in fall. Ambient air temperatures occasionally drop below water temperatures, giving way to spectacular fog and mist! We break it down into a simple formula: absolutely unique landscape + gorgeous fall color + atmospheric fog = world-class photography.

This photo workshop is boat-based, as it’s the best way to see fall color in the cypress swamps. A private boat allows us to chase the best conditions and cover a lot of water – the bayou is an expansive area with much to explore.
