DESCRIPTION: |
We
are privileged to
live in a city which
is host to one of
the finest
zoological garden in
the world and is the
perfect place to
practice wildlife
and nature
photography
techniques. Over the
years we have been
running these
workshops,, we still
are amazed by the
high calibre of our
students images.
Today’s digital
cameras allow us to
shoot a number of
images at no cost.
The quality is
excellent and you
can manipulate the
image afterwards.
Taronga Zoo is the
nation's leading
zoological garden,
featuring
Australia's finest
collection of native
animals and a
diverse collection
of exotic species.
What makes Taronga
something special is
its location. It is
situated on elevated
land along the
waterfront, in one
of the most
beautiful vantage
points on Sydney
Harbour overlooking
Sydney Cove, the
Harbour Bridge and
the Opera House.
This Sydney wildlife
photography workshop
will appeal to all
photographers
wishing to improve
their technique.
We cover such things
as the best gear for
specific subjects.
For instance when we
are photographing
creatures such as
Iguanas... compact
cameras are
fantastic but not so
good for prowling
tigers where you
need fast shutters
speeds.
This workshop is
suitable for anyone,
with any camera and
at any level as we
teach you how to
adapt your technique
to optimise your
skill and camera
equipment level.
Some
of the living
creatures which we
will be
photographing
