A Practical Guide to Close-Up Photography with Jeff Milsteen
Close-up photography covers a number of photographic genres — from nature to tabletop to abstract —and presents limitless creative opportunities to photographers of all levels. This presentation will focus on the tools and techniques needed to get up close and personal with small subjects. We’ll explore the range of equipment that can be used and learn lighting and focusing methods that will enhance our ability to make successful macro images. Join us for what promises to be an educational and entertaining evening!
Remember: November's Competition is "Bugs" this will be a great primer for your summer shots for this competition.
