Explore the garden through a new lens and discover the botanical beauty hidden in plain sight. From sweeping landscape views to detailed macro shots, you will learn how to turn everyday plants into striking images.
We will start with the basics of camera settings and the Exposure Triangle, then dive into the real heart of photography: composition. You will practice using light, shadows, lines, and textures to tell a story with your photos, going beyond simple snapshots to create art.
Bring your camera or phone; DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, and smartphones are all welcome!
