Wildlife Photography Meetup - The Arboretum - 9am - 2 hours

Los Angeles Photography Group presents a Wildlife Photography meetup that is perfect if you want a 'hands on' approach to wildlife photography. We are visiting The Arboretum. Wildlife is a game of patience, perseverance and technical know-how. It requires you to be able to think on your feet and make changes to your focus, settings and exposure without taking the camera down from your eye. We cover key settings and when to use them, the array of focusing methods available on your camera, using histograms to analyse photos in-camera as well as constructive critique on compositions. For this meetup, it's necessary to have a firm understanding of your cameras basic settings with a little bit of experience under your belt as we will be delving deep into our camera settings and capabilities. It's also necessary to have a telephoto lens as these are critical for wildlife photography. You'll be under the guidance of professional photographer Shelley Nogle, who will be setting challenges and guiding you throughout, and providing feedback and answers on anything you're not sure about. Book in to join the instructor after the group for a 1.5 hour critique, select, and edit session where you can develop your post shoot skills. Bring your tablet or laptop. Having a professional photographer on our critique sessions will help move your photography to a higher level. Your photos will be evaluated along with a lot of encouragement. You will have a better understanding of the larger “picture” improving your skills as a photographer For the month of October we are offering all members that purchase a ticket to bring a friend along free of charge. *OCTOBER 2019 only Please let us know your friends details in the notes when booking your ticket.
