Nature Photography Meetup

Nature Photography Meetup

Sunday 04 June
Tioga Falls - 12pm - 2 Hours
Louisville Photography Group
Join this session for tips on how to use your camera settings to creatively capture nature in a visually interesting way. We will be looking at composition, focus, and colour. Many professional offices and places of business have large prints gracing their wall space of things such as fields of flowers, a butterfly perched on a leaf, and a single dew drop on a rose petal. These beautiful images are all around us in nature. It just takes that special "eye" to not only see it but to capture it in a way that will turn that simple little piece of nature into a beautiful piece of art. The botanical gardens should make it fairly easy to find things worthy of photographing so that we can learn how to use different angles, light and shadows, and settings to make them pop!

Using Light & Shadow in Photography

Using Light & Shadow in Photography

Saturday 26 August
Bernheim Forest - 10am - 2 Hours
Louisville Photography Group
Light and shadow photography is a type of photography that focuses on capturing the interplay between light and shadow in a particular scene. This style of photography often produces dramatic and compelling images that can evoke strong emotions in the viewer. Harsh light and the contrast between light and shadow can provide some interesting photo opportunities, as well as some challenges! In this meetup, we will be looking at how you can use your camera's settings to nail the exposure.

    Maree was very helpful. My only negative comment is to not have further meetings at Quills .they were very busy, people talking everywhere..I missed most of the group presentation due to that, but I was not the only one who could not hear. But the individual time Maree gave each of us made the class worth it. Looking forward to more (black and white probably my next)

    I thought it was great. From the perspective of someone who knew nothing about photography but has been casually interested, the information provided answered a lot of questions that I had. The structure was well thought out and flowed well for the duration of the class.
