CIWC Club Meeting Nature Photography for the Trail
Most of us already carry a camera into the woods. This class is about coming home with pictures that look the way the place felt.
Join us on Wednesday, September 23rd at 6:30 for the handful of things that make the biggest difference in nature photography, minus the deep technical rabbit holes. How to read the light you've been given and pick a subject to match it. Why an overcast morning beats a bright afternoon for creeks, waterfalls, and wildflowers. How to spot the cluttered background that's about to ruin an otherwise good shot. How to get closer to wildlife without stressing the animal. And a few habits that separate photographers who keep getting better from the ones who plateau.
Whatever camera you already own is enough, whether that's a phone, a point-and-shoot, or a DSLR you've never taken off the green box. We'll keep things practical, so newer photographers won't get lost and experienced ones will still leave with something to try on the next hike. Bring your camera, your questions, and a few shots you're not happy with — those usually make the best teaching examples.
Please RSVP (register) to help us anticipate turnout.
