Macro Magic Workshop

If you are a user of a DSLR Camera, this close and personal location workshop adventure is for you! Join professional photographer Greg, for three hours in the Mt Cootha Botanical Gardens discovering the amazing world of birds, bugs and flowers.

This workshop would suit people who have some basic knowledge of photography but would love to extend their understanding and technical knowledge on the wonderful world of close up photography.

The Workshop is a 3 hour venture through the relaxed and amazing surroundings of the Mt Cootha Botanical Gardens. Learn tips to get best results of the undiscovered world of nature through macro photography. Join Greg and he will take you through the finer points of macro, manual focus and composition. The "Macro Magic" workshop will make you look at the world like you have never seen before, after you have captured the infinite beauty of birds, bugs and flowers in macro.

With Camera and Macro lens in hand the whole world of Macro will become yours.... When it comes images of to flowers and birds most of them are not macros. They are normally captured with a 70-200 zoom or a 400mm prime lens. So it's a great idea to have, apart from having a macro lens, a zoom lens of about 200mm or up 400mm or maybe even longer.

 

What you will need for this Workshop:

  • A digital camera with manual controls, preferably a DSLR.
  • Tripod or Monopod.
  • Macro lens able to go to 1:1 (if possible), or extension tubes.
  • A Zoom Lens 70~200mm or 400mm Prime Lens.
  • Small Reflector or Flash with Extension Cable (if possible).
  • Open mind to learn...

Each participant gets a workshop booklet that includes everything covered on the day, plus a whole lot more advanced tips, tricks and ideas.

Workshop will cover:

  • Photography basics - in macro, shutter speed, composition, exposure
  • Focus Points - Ensuring sharp images with control of focusing points
  • How to use the light to create texture and depth
  • When and why to use a reflector or flash
  • What is the right lens to capture the image you are after
  • White Balance and light metering...... and much more!

The success to your images is your attention to detail and this is what Greg will get you really focused on. He will share with you what it takes to see that right moment and what makes a brilliant image, without having to use photoshop to fix it up.

Here's what you get..........

  • Class numbers are limited to 10 to ensure maximum learning opportunity.
  • Course Notes / Booklet Supplied on the day.
  • Discounts on a Massive Range Photographic Equipment and Frames.
  • Access to a Range of Preferred Suppliers with special offers to suit all your needs.
  • Free Access to the New Members Only Area (Release Late February 2012).

All this for only $90 for a three hour adventure in the world of "Macro Magic".
