Flower Photography Workshop with Harold Davis
Enjoy flower photography in an intimate group led by master photographer Harold Davis, the author of Photographing Flowers (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0240820738/bearhomecom/) from Focal Press.
This workshop is limited to five participants. We will start in Harold's garden, and proceed to photograph in several of Harold's favorite nearby locations for flower photography.
The workshop will cover a number of specialized techniques related to flower photography, including how to best work with macro lenses and how to create hyperfocal imagery.
Finally, Harold will show you how he photographs flowers on a lightbox to create stunning transparent floral imagery.
After the workshop we will break bread together with a "Dutch treat" meal at a local restaurant to review and discuss your photos.
