SUMMARY:Shooting Sports Like A Pro With The Reading Fightin' Phils
DESCRIPTION:What better way to enjoy a summer evening than spending an evening at a baseball game? And for the photo enthusiast\, what better way to enjoy the game than capturing the action like the pros in the press area! We will have special access during the entire game to shoot in the press areas along the first and third base dugouts. We will also be able to shoot from a variety of locations throughout the stadium. Instruction will be given prior to the event during a pre-trek Zoom class\, and throughout to help you capture the action with whatever gear\, and whatever level of photographic knowledge you have. \nInstruction will be given on best settings to capture fast action\, focus on moving subjects\, composition\, dealing with difficult light\, and more. \nAnd\, as an added bonus\, there will be a spectacular fireworks display after the game that we will photograph from a great location. Don’t miss this fun and fantastic opportunity to capture baseball images like a pro! \nRegistration fee includes pre-trek zoom class\, admission to stadium\, press passes\, instruction throughout the evening and fireworks show! Also included is a post-trek image review. \nNote: the event ends after the fireworks display. Depending on the length of the actual game\, 9:30 will not likely be the ending time. \nLocation: First Energy Stadium\, 1900 Centre Ave\, Reading\, PA 19601
