Rolling hills, plunging gorges, limestone bluffs, diverse wildlife and villages reflecting the region’s western and Old World heritages highlight this trip around the Edwards Plateau of central Texas. The bluebonnets and Indian paintbrush, along with a multitude of other naturally blooming wildflowers, generally abound at some of the stops along the route, often resulting in impressive displays of color coordinated around historical settings. Austin will be our center and we will work both east and west depending on the specific bloom happening at the time.  We will explore the area concentrating on the fabulous wildflower blooms that are usually present. Our workshop goal will be to capture the spectacular Hill Country spring bloom and the timing is set to catch peak bloom. The final itinerary will concentrate on the areas with the best winter rain and spring blooms. Beth lives in Austin and will monitor the blooming cycle to operate in the best flower locations each weekend.
