In this workshop, award-winning and internationally published photographer David Stimac will teach participants how to create spectacular photographs of landscapes, plants, and animals. Whether you are a novice or advanced hobbyist, this class offers something for everyone. The workshop will begin with an entertaining slideshow and discussion on how great bird images are made.

The presentation focuses on the equipment and techniques used to best capture the beauty of birds. Topics covered include camera bodies, lenses, tripods, and other support. Participants will learn about camera settings, such as exposure and what autofocus modes to use. Tips on creating composition and creative techniques on using light and wind direction will also be shared. You’ll see how to get close and ways to use camouflage and blinds – even when and where to find birds! After a 90-minute presentation, participants will have time to test their new knowledge on pathways at Dow Gardens and Whiting Forest.

$35 per person.
