Woods & Tree Photo Students Branch Out

October 15, 2014

Shadows, angles and small spots of color help to define autumn.CBG students in both sections of Photographing Trees and Into the Woods classes really enjoyed the time we spent in all of the wooded areas of the garden. From the forest floor to the canopy, tripods and filters of all types saw lots of action throughout the late summer and autumn. If you missed these classes, we’ll be running them again next year. Until then, there will be many opportunities to join us and expand your photo horizons.

Challenging light levels are everywhere in the woods.

Weekly Photo Tip

Take the center column away

A definite Sign of Spring.

If your tripod has a center column, you will want to remove it before getting down to photograph spring flowers. Even with a 100-180mm focal length macro lens, your tripod will be too far from the subject. There are two options: 1. purchase a tripod with a removable center column or 2. just purchase a tripod that never had a center column. Of these two choices, I’d opt for the first one.

About Jack

A classically trained musician since childhood, Jack Carlson always had the “ear” of an artist. It was only a short step to develop the artist’s “eye” as well.

The portfolio of this certified photographer reveals images that emphasize mood and composition. Their purpose is to present a feeling in addition to portrayal of person, place or thing. Sometimes that feeling is nostalgia; other times it is serenity.

Each photograph tells a story.
