Nature Photography Meetup
Sunday 20 April
Lytham - 10:30am - 2 Hours
Jayne Walsh
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. We will learn how to use different angles, light and shadows, and settings to make subjects pop.
In this meetup we're providing the opportunity to capture on film the ornate gardens, the Lake and Curtains Pond. With over 4 km of paths we can find pretty, quiet areas of the grounds to photograph the colours of Autumn.
