* The lecture and field trip are for paid participants only                             

Lecture:   In the pre field trip lecture, we will discuss digital shooting techniques as they apply to swamp photography from boats. We will concentrate on composition and lighting; the most important aspects to great photography. We will also work on tips and techniques to photographing sunsets, wildlife, and close-ups. Photo editing with Adobe Lightroom will also be covered.  Finally we will discuss equipment and the logistics of the field trip. Lecture location will most likely be at the Backpacker or CC’s office.

Field Trip:  We will meet at a central location in Baton Rouge and immediately take off to one of the great sites on the east side of Atchafalaya Basin. Drive time approximately one hour. Exact location depends on water level in the basin and will be decided closer to the launch date. This year we will travel the Basin by a Bateau instead of canoe.

            We will concentrate on landscapes of bald cypress trees, bayous, and a fall swamp sunset. There is also a good chance of getting some wetland wildlife.

Equipment:  You will need your camera, lens, extra chips, extra batteries, and some kind of protective case for your gear. Bring your tripod if you have one. Lens: A good wide angle is best for most landscapes, a macro lens for close-ups, and a telephoto of 200mm up to 300mm is good for wildlife. Remember though, “It’s you that gets the good picture, not the equipment.”

Other Gear:  Sack lunch, drink/water, small towel, hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, mosquito repellent, notebook, pen and clothes for the current weather.

Critique Session:   We meet at location in Baton RougeTBA to show our best 10 photographs to the group. CC will make comments and suggestions on how you did. It’s best to bring your 10 photographs from this trip on a memory stick. Resize them to 10 inches on the long side at 72 dpi and save as a Jpeg.

            At anytime in any of the three sessions feel free to ask questions about anything including technique, equipment, marketing your photographs, setting up a web page, making prints, books, cards or other photo products.
