Nature Photography Meetup

Nature Photography Meetup

Saturday 21 December
Downtown Lafayette - 10am - 2 Hours
Lafayette Photography Group
Mallory Stanford
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.

Title or Location: View fro Mt Nelson, Tasmania
View from Mt Nelson, Hobart, Tasmania Watercolour .This is one of the breathtaking views I captured of the Derwent River, the widest river in Tasmania. I was struck by how the vibrant hues of green trees beautifully framed the river from my vantage point and the mountains beyond. I found myself wondering who drove the car on the road in the painting and enjoyed the landscape just like me.
