OK, so you have your fancy digital camera. Have you tried using it in the brisk cold of an early April morning on the beautiful cherry blossoms at the Tidal Basin BEFORE the sun comes up? If not, here is your chance to do it under the direction of professional digital photographer Melanie Otto, who will help you with those macro settings for intimate blossom close-ups, with file compression and white balance usage, fill flash, filtration, tripod use, and with those tricky exposure issues.
The National Cherry Blossom Festival is DC's signature springtime event. The 2009 Festival is March 28 April 12, and features daily cultural performances, sporting events, arts & crafts, demonstrations and other special events. The National Cherry Blossom Festival celebrates the 97th anniversary of the gift of the cherry blossom trees and the enduring friendship between the citizens of the United States and Japan.
