Join us for a new series of workshops at The Boyce Thompson Arboretum. Our goal with this series of workshops will be to take the mystery out of using your digital camera and excel forward into fine art nature photography. In this series of workshops we will start off covering basic functions of your cameras menu as well as aperture and shutter speeds, ISO and White Balance. Then we will move into selective focus and depth of field, composition and more advanced functions of your camera, with impromptu field lectures. Click on adjacent photo for more info.
