Basic Camera, Beautiful Photos; Saturday, October 15

Join experienced nature photographer Paul Schmitt in the Herb Garden and then in the classroom to learn how to capture what you see using a digital camera. This introductory workshop is aimed toward those using simple cameras: from smartphones and basic point & shoot designs, to entry-level DSLRs. We will begin in the botanical garden with instruction on how to create the best composition, avoid over- and under-exposure, and bring out your subject from the background.  Then, we’ll proceed to the classroom to learn simple tools for editing your photos so that the final image matches what you saw. Participants should bring their own digital camera. Class size is limited so that each student can receive individual attention. Pre-registration is required.

Date/time: Saturday, October 15; 1-4p.m.
Cost: $36 ($32 for Plantations members)
Instructor: Paul Schmitt, nature photographer
Location: Meet at the Nevin Welcome Center
