This workshop will teach you how to capture images of birds and wildlife like those you see in magazines and books.
Birds and wildlife are some of the most challenging subjects to capture and the skills translate well towards other disciplines such as action sports.
We will cover:
- camera settings
- composition
- focusing techniques
For this workshop, you will need a DSLR or mirrorless camera that can be shot in manual or shutter priority modes.
For the best results, you will need a lens in the 300mm-800mm range.
A tripod or monopod will help achieve sharper images.
