IMPROVE YOUR BIRD PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS
Participants at an Improve your bird photography workshop at White's Rd Wetlands.
WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
Thanks for visiting my website and for your interest in my photography workshops!
This workshop will take place in a relaxed atmosphere conducive to learning and practising new skills.
Participants will leave the workshop with an improved understanding of what it takes to create beautiful bird photographs and will be able to go away and put their new skills into action in the field.
At the beginning of the workshop I will go through your general camera settings to make sure they are optimal for bird and wildlife photography. During the workshop we will cover the following areas, and more:
Correct exposure and shutter speeds
Achieving tack sharp images
Composition
Autofocus modes for static and fast-moving subjects
Field craft
Dealing with tricky lighting situations
High and low key images
In the event the conditions are unfavourable and will negatively impact your workshop experience, we will reschedule to a suitable future date.
