* 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 hiking in the forest. We will concentrate on composition and lighting; the most important aspects to great photography. We will also work on tips and techniques to photographing waterfalls, wildlife, and close-ups. 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 the intersection of Highway 61 and 66 at 7:30am and drive about 30 minutes to our shooting location in the rugged Tunica Hills. We will hike on trails to a creek with several waterfalls. The area should be dressed in beautiful spring foliage. We will work on landscape compositions of flora, waterfalls, streams, and close-ups. The hike will be about 2 miles with steep trails. Call us if you need more  info on the terrain. We will eat lunch on the trail. We will get back to our vehicles by or before 2:00pm.

Equipment:  Camera, lens, extra chips, extra batteries. 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 short telephoto is useful on this hike. Remember though, “It’s you that gets the good picture, not the equipment.”

Other Gear:  Small backpack, sack lunch, drink/water, small towel, hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, mosquito repellent, notebook, pen and clothes for the current weather.  Boots, tennis or Tevas are good shoes.

Critique Session:   We meet at location in Baton Rouge TBA 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  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.
