This photo trek is for photographers of all levels. It is a great place to create HDR-or High Dynamic Range images. The focus will be on creative composition, as the museum holds opportunities to focus on the big picture and then smaller and smaller details until you are keying in on the smallest part of your subject. Instruction will be given on exposure and other camera settings, as well as compositional tips. Join as we explore another treasure in Southeast PA.
You can use whatever gear you have, but a super-wide angle lens, mid range telephoto, lens hoods, tripod are about all you might want to bring.
