Macrophotography training in the Vercors

Description

Over the course of a weekend in the southern Vercors / Val de Drôme region, I am offering you the chance to perfect your technical and artistic skills in the fascinating field of macro photography. This will be an opportunity to immortalize wild orchids and various butterflies.

This introduction to macro photography will allow you to approach its specific aspects: handling of the camera stand, use of macro accessories, depth of field, artistic rendering, etc.

I will share my naturalist view of flowers and the notions of responsible and important attitude towards flora.

Finally, you will do a daily analysis and sharing of the images obtained.

Macrophotography is an exciting subject that creates a very particular aesthetic that differs greatly from other photographic styles. Capturing unusual shots of a flower, an insect, a straw makes you aware of all the life present just under our feet. Macrophotography makes us aware of the importance of changing our way of looking at things in order to develop our artistic sense. This weekend is an opportunity for you to learn about this art form by first learning the specific techniques of macrophotography, such as how to use a tripod, how to manage depth of field, and how to render artistic results. You will be able to create your first macro photographs or improve your skills with the advice of an experienced instructor.

This weekend is for beginners or experienced photographers, passionate, and eager to initiate or improve in macro photography.

If you wish to broaden your skills in photography, I also offer a training in animal photography, especially vultures, in Drôme  as well as a hiking and photo training trip in the Gran Paradiso park in the Italian Alps.
