Where Catalpa Room
Where Catalpa Room As a serious photographer, do you dream of an opportunity to shoot in the Gardens without the buzz of activity during the day? This is that opportunity! In four, three-hour sessions, you will be given a series of challenging but fun assignments and the freedom to move through selected areas of the Gardens to complete them. Class time is devoted to photography, so we will use online support for lively discussions and critiques. Participation in the online discussions is expected of all participants. This class is open to all who own a digital, single lens reflex camera. Because we will be shooting in available light, a sturdy tripod is highly recommended. Basic instruction in the fundamentals of photography will be provided online for those who are new photographers or interested in a camera basics refresher.
Join us in the Gardens to photograph the splendor of early morning’s golden light. Meet before sunrise, discuss briefly where the best locations are to be found, and then head out to photograph, just as the sun is rising. You’ll need a tripod and a shutter release is highly recommended. Prior to the start of class, you will receive a handout that discusses the equipment you should bring and the shooting considerations you should take into account. Inclement Weather Date April 13
