North Shore Photography Group
Peace Brown
Join this session for tips on how to use your camera settings to creatively capture nature in a visually interesting way. We will be looking at composition, focus, and colour.

Many professional offices and places of business have large prints gracing their wall space of things such as fields of flowers, a butterfly perched on a leaf, and a single dew drop on a rose petal. These beautiful images are all around us in nature. It just takes that special "eye" to not only see it but to capture it in a way that will turn that simple little piece of nature into a beautiful piece of art. We will learn how to use different angles, light and shadows, and settings to make subjects pop.

    Francisco was great! He explained the fundamentals clearly and concisely so they actually made sense. I'd heard it before but others didn't manage to explain the relationship between iso, aperture and shutter speed so I understood. Francisco did. Loved the individual attention.

    There?s sunset and there?s sunset like this! As if Mother Nature decided that the colours were not enough and returned with these extraordinary after colours!I was a bit wavering that afternoon looking at those thick clouds building up but then a gap in those clouds made for a colour burst producing a sunset that has by far been one of the best in this year I have seen!

    Almost missed the sunset that evening so thought to capture the reverse sunset colours that had slowly started to build up instead. I had always dreamt of a sunrise shot framing the Sydney Opera House from Cahill Expressway but was glad enough to get the sunset colours this evening. The pastel pink tones in the sky perfectly blends with the white sails of the Opera House and the blue Sydney harbour waters. &129655&129293&128153

When I learned of this spot I knew I had to get my own photo of the iconic view. I only had a few lenses to choose from and a huge crowd of people to work around trying to get their own photos. The photo still turned out incredible if I may say.
