In this intense all day seminar you will learn basic and advanced techniques for nature, landscape and outdoor photography. All the lectures are fully illustrated with slides and examples. A complete set of seminar notes is included. If you want to jump start your photography and learn professional techniques for creating memorable images, then this seminar is for you. Here are a few of the topics we will cover in the seminar:

Composition: Learn how to develop a photographer's eye and spot great compositions in the field. You will also learn how to arrange the elements of a photograph to make a compelling image.

Light: Learn how to find dramatic and effective lighting. We will discuss tools to modify light color, direction, and intensity, including the use of reflectors and fill flash.

Exposure: You will learn how to recognize and achieve proper exposure. Also, find out how exposing film is different from exposing digital images. We will teach you how to take control of your camera by understanding your camera's light meter and when to adjust your camera's recommended exposure.

Digital: We will explore digital imagery, digital workflow and digital processing. Included are specific recommendations for cameras, printers, scanners, and other supplies.

Equipment: Learn about the latest digital cameras, lenses and other equipment. We will share our experience in selecting tripods, camera bags, and other gear for nature and outdoor photography.

This seminar is for anyone with an interest in outdoor, travel, nature, or landscape photography. The lectures will assume a basic knowledge of photographic concepts and are geared toward digital or film SLR camera users.

SEMINAR FEE: $50.00
