Focus on Orchids Photo Workshop February 6, 2010

Orchids are among nature's loveliest creations but are often very challenging to photograph. Bob Bretell has been shooting orchids for 20 years and will demystify the frustrations many camera enthusiasts have capturing these exotic flowers on digital. During this four-hour workshop, you will learn how to look for and create the "sweet light" that will make your photos jump off the page. The class will consist of demonstrations using natural garden vignettes as well as some of Bob's favorite painted canvas and handmade paper backgrounds. There will be lots of outdoor shooting in the Garden followed by a critique and discussion. Materials list provided upon registration. All levels are welcome.
