<h3>Nature Photography Meetup</h3>
<div style="padding-bottom: 5px;"><b>Sunday 21 September</b></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 5px;"><b>Royal Botanical Gardens, Sydney - 10am - 2 Hours</b></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 5px;"><b><a target="_blank" href="https://sydneyphotographygroup.com.au">Sydney Photography Group</a></b></div>
<div style="padding-bottom: 5px;"><b>Sandra Milena Gonzalez Velandia</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">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.
<br>
<br>
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.

<div style="padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px;"> Title or Location: Citrus Heights CA Sunrise BLVD<br> It was high noon, the kind of harsh light that usually sends a macro photographer looking for shade. But I had come prepared ? an external flash rigged to soften and shape the light, with the sun carefully blocked everywhere except where it could kiss the back of a morning glory. My goal was simple: capture the deep velvet blues and magentas of the flower, to show how it glowed even under the midday sky.I settled in close, letting the 100mm macro lens pull me into that hidden world of texture <br> Credit: <b>Brian Vess</b><br> Instagram: vessbriankeith<br> </div>

<div style="padding-bottom: 5px; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px;"> Title or Location: Lismore, Vic <br> I am always on the lookout for old farmhouses or farm sheds to photograph, they have so much character and probably so much to say. I was reading about this old cottage out near Port fairy and was truly amazed by its history and story that I had to go and see for myself and take a photo.<br> Credit: <b>Marcel Aquilina</b><br> </div>
