The Art of Macro - Sydney Photography Workshop
DO YOU HAVE A FASCINATION WITH ALL THINGS SMALL AND WONDERFUL?
Begin the journey to being a Macro and Close Up specialist. Looking through a macro lens brings you up close to a whole new world of colours, textures and shapes. The canvas is limitless.
The emphasis of this workshop is on how to use your macro and close up lenses and understand the power of light and its important role in capturing and altering depth of field within a very small window of this micro world.
Our team of experts will help you create images which are really larger than life. You will develop your technical knowledge and hone in on your creative self to capture unique and captivating photographs of a truly professional standard.
Whether you are beginning your journey with macro or want to gain further knowledge in this area, The Art of Macro will motivate and inspire you to a new level. This intensive workshop is designed for all levels of photography.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN Macro explained - understand the difference between macro and close up photography. Magnification - understand depth ratios and life size measurements. Equipment - learn what lenses and macro accessories are available and how to use them. Lighting -explore macro lighting techniques with the use of reflectors, shapers and diffusers.
