One Day Field Workshops

Come learn new photographic skills and practice old ones with an all day photo workshop. Nature photographer and photographic teacher Les Saucier will conduct three one-day nature photography workshops in his own backyard. He will instruct and demonstrate traditional photo techniques plus new and innovative techniques - wide-angle macro, near-far landscapes, Orton Effect, intimate landscapes and macro flashlights to help you with your photographic creativity. These workshops will be limited to only seven participants to insure maximum time for individual photographic coaching. Les will be assisted by awarding wining nature photographer John Schornak.

Two day Field and Classroom Workshops

The advent of digital photography has changed some of the skills and techniques for capturing wildflower images. The purpose of this 1½-day workshops is to bring photographers up to speed with the new technology. The participants will learn about traditional flower portraits, intimate landscapes, wide-angle close-ups and telephoto close-ups of wildflowers. Digital skills such as digital workflow, correct white balance, extending depth of field and stopping motion digitally will be demonstrated in the field. Students will also be guided in creating their own digital images in the field. It is highly recommended that photographers use digital SLR cameras and tripods for this workshop.
The first day of this workshop is in the field and the second (half day) is in the classroom. The classroom work will be a critique of the previous day's field work.
