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.

    Livi was an excellent instructor and guide. Her ability to assist in not only confidence building, but watching her skill in photography inspired me. I would definitely recommend to anyone who needs that extra push to get themselves out there and produce amazing photos.

    Title or Location: Four Peaks
    Back in 2023, I made a trip to the base of Four Peaks to capture the Wolf Moon (first full moon of the year) rising right over the center of the mountain. My friend and I took our jeeps to the top of one of the foothills, eagerly anticipating a "huge" moon rising. It was pretty cloudy on the horizon, which delayed the reveal an extra ten minutes. Finally, it came up... And it was actually pretty disappointing. The moon wasn't nearly as exciting as I thought it would be. I originally shared this

    Title or Location: Bald Head Island, North Carolina, USA
    This blossom was on a small Magnolia tree sheltered from the wind and weather on Bald Head Island. When I spied this blossom the sun light was beginning to illuminate the petals. Time time spent waiting for the pictorial moment gave me time to more deeply appreciate the beauty of this transient blossom. Taken with a Nikon D850, tripod, 70-200 in close distance. Single image-no stacking.

    Title or Location: The Oregon Zoo
    The Oregon Zoo is a symphony of colors, a vibrant tapestry of life from every corner of the world. But on that particular day, it was the intrigue of the flamingo exhibit that caught my attention. As I approached, camera in hand, the light was perfectly casting a glow on the water as the flamingos glided along. Among the flock, one particular bird stood out. It approached me with an equal curiosity as I. It captured me as I captured it. The result, I believe, speaks for itself. It's more than ju

    Title or Location: Animal Ark Wildlife Sanctuary
    Gracie is one of our North American Black bears that we have rescued. A private owner kept her as a pet, illegally when she was a cub. She was confiscated by NDOW and was brought to us 19 years ago. Now, she is living her best life with all the love and care she could ask for. I took the photo while assisting with her care that day.
