Virginia Kendall Ledges Park
Virginia Kendall Ledges Park
Venue Description:
The Ledges in Ohio are areas of massive boulders, deposited here when glaciers retreated from the last ice age, creating one of the most unique landscapes in the state. Nestled between Cleveland and Akron, just west of Hudson, this stunning park offers endless inspiration for photographers. If you are interested in composition and landscape photography, this is the place for you. Your Digital Photo Academy instructor will lead you through hidden valleys, stone staircases, and trees with roots anchored deep into bare rock. You’ll learn how to work with woodland light and capture sweeping panoramas. If you’re looking for a nature shoot with a focus on composition, this is the class for you.
You’ll also find a wide variety of composition and lighting possibilities at the Ledges! Beyond the rock formations, there are several other beautiful spots nearby—a historic bridge, a marsh, and more. The Beaver Marsh, just down the road, has been designated an Important Bird Area by the National Audubon Society and frequently provides views of herons, swallows, ducks, geese, swans, and sometimes even migrating warblers. It’s one of the area’s favorite spots for nature photography.
Meeting Spot:
We will meet at the Ledges Shelter inside Virginia Kendall Ledges Park. This spot has picnic tables and a covered area, making it an ideal place for our opening discussion about camera settings and composition before we head out to practice in the park. A photo of the Ledges Shelter is below.
