Photograph Machinery - Subjects like machinery are fantastic because, more often than not, you have complete control over everything from lighting to composition. A tripod will help you hone your composition into a very compelling image … and if you fill the frame with your subject, all sense of perspective can be lost, which creates a fantastic photograph. |

Large Mammal Photography - Chris Kosseff
In this presentation, I will share some of what I have learned about capturing quality photographs of animals. It is my hope that there will be a lively discussion of issues and that my passion, if not skill, will generate enthusiasm among attendees. The plan is to have an interactive evening that is fun, educational and highlighted with some photographs of the beauty in our world. |

Photograph Still Life - One of the best ways to learn your camera and gear is through still life photography. You have total control over everything from your subjects to your lighting to your story. Get set up on a tripod and start snapping. Check your composition and adjust as needed. Do this enough and soon you'll have a feel for everything that's possible with your gear. (NOTE: for this one, there is no excuse for getting it wrong. You really DO have total control!) |
