SUMMARY:Spring Beauty @ Hershey Gardens Photo Trek
DESCRIPTION:Hershey Gardens is one of those “off the radar” places for many photographers\, but that’s certainly not for lack of beauty and photographic opportunities. Visiting during many different seasons\, there is always a quiet beauty that awaits your wandering. \nI absolutely love photographing in the spring\, and Hershey offers a ton of gorgeous plantings-including rows and rows of tulips\, that are perfect for quite a few hours of photography. The focus of this workshop will been on capturing the delicate beauty of the flowers. This is most easily done with a macro lens\, but can certainly be accomplished with other lenses\, as well. Hands-on instruction will be given on how to create stunning flower portraits\, focusing in on the soft and unique details of each flower. \nThere will also be plenty of opportunities to make amazing images of larger plantings and scenes as we wander pathways lined with beautiful bushes and trees in bloom. An added bonus will be to spend some time in the butterfly house\, capturing the delicate beauty of a variety of these lovely creatures. \nOf course\, another added bonus is the close proximity to Chocolate World-which for you chocolate lovers\, is right across the street! 😁 \nIf you are looking to learn macro photography\, or improve your current skill level\, then this workshop is for you! This is also for anyone looking for new opportunities to capture beautiful scenes in a very scenic environment. Open to all skill levels. Minimal gear required. We can work with whatever gear you have. A detailed list of suggested gear-such as a sturdy tripod that can go low to the ground\, circular polarizers and lens hoods for each lens\, and close up accessories if you do not have a macro lens are recommended. \nA pre-trek class will be held about a week prior to the workshop via Zoom to go through all the details of the trip\, and lots of shooting tips and techniques to get you ready. We will then meet at the gardens by opening time\, ready to roll! After the event\, there will be an image review\, also via Zoom\, where we will discuss tips to improve your images. Join us for this unique learning opportunity during the beauty of spring. \nParticipants kept to a small amount to allow for more one on one instruction. Don’t wait to register! A minimum number of participants is required to run the event. \nWorkshop will take place during a light rain. If severe weather is forecast\, we will reschedule to the following Saturday
