Nature
Photography 101
Slide Presentation and lecture, with examples of what constitutes good
nature photography. We will cover technique, composition, and the things
that make a subject interesting to your viewer. We will also see and
discuss examples of what constitutes a good vs poor specimen, whether
it is a plant or animal. Scenic photography techniques will also be
covered. Lighting and exposure will be discussed, as well as camera
and lens choices, tripods, tripod heads, and other equipment.. Differences
between RAW and JPEG images will be explained, along with the advantages
of each, and a primer on post-processing on the computer, for optimum
results. This is a great class for those who want to get started with
nature photography as well as those who are already experienced and
want to pick up some new ideas and techniques. Best for those with 35mm
DSLR cameras utilizing interchangeable lenses, but will be helpful to
those with point-and-shoot cameras as well – especially those
wanting to upgrade to DSLR.
