For all of those looking for Lochsa River Pics from this weekend. I am working on it. I am processing the photos and getting them uploaded so that they are in sequence. There are about 9,650 photos from Saturday and 6,350 photos from Sunday that I have to work thru.
My goal is to have the photos uploaded and the share posted to this blog by Friday, May 30th. The photos will be free to download for non-commercial use, but because of the number of photos and restrictions thru adobe lightroom shared albums I can't upload all 15,000 full resolution photos.
If you find one you like and want a print of please reach out by sending a copy of the photo, filename, etc. and I will work on doing a print level, quality edit of your photo, and assist with getting it printed to go on your wall. There is a great professional printer here in Missoula, Paper and Ink Studio who takes a little bit of time, but her prints are outstanding quality.
I posted a few of the early peak photos that I editted from Saturday on my facebook account at www.facebook.com/bpitmanphoto/ please feel free to go there and give me a like/follow or share to let your buddies know where to look for the Picture Share.
Please check back later this week for an update!
Please Comment if you were able to find this page and blog post from the information given out at the pavilion on Saturday night at Wilderness Gateway.

Please find the below photos from Saturday and Sunday of Memorial Day Weekend at the Lochsa. I have not gone thru the photos other than to make sure the batch edits took and that they are there. So you all get to see my mistakes, out of focus shots, and the wins/good photos.
The fullsize photos from my camera are suitable for printing, but the Adobe Album Share reduces the size when downloaded from the album. So the files you will be able to download are good for social media, a desktop background or other electronic use. I would encourage you to tag me on Facebook Braden Pitman or my instagram @BPitmanPhoto I would appreciate the exposure and would love to see the comments and reactions.
If you want a full size copy of your photo please reach out to me directly, emailing me a copy of the photo from the album that you would like a full size copy of. If you want a print made of your photo, please reach out and I can discuss options. I strongly recommend that I do a print quality edit on the individual photo you want to print, and have it done thru Paper & Ink Studio linked above.
However, depending on the number of requests I recieve I may have to add a "custom" product to my webpage here and charge $10 per full size photo copy and charge $30.00 per print level edit, plus add print options for printing the photos thru Paper & Ink, just to cover my time digging thru the photos and doing edits/sending pics.
I have also added a donate link below the album links. If you feel like tipping me a few bucks for taking photos and going thru the trouble of sharing them out this way, I'd appreciate anything you feel willing to give. Photography, like rafting and kayaking, is an expensive hobby and any financial encouragement will be greatly appreciated.
