Your instructor will provide techniques to make your animal photos come to life by sharing the basic principles of panning, long lens, cropping and other tips that will lead to photos that go beyond the snapshot sensibility. Your instructor will also share extensive information on which lenses serve which purposes, to help you get the most out of the lenses you own and help you consider future lens purchases. In addition to animal portraiture outdoors there are photo ops in the Monkey House and other inside spaces that will provide lessons of catching your subjects in spite of the challenges of ambient lighting.
Additionally, there will be plenty of statues, landscapes and flora to photograph within Hermann Park. So be prepared to step back and capture a wide frame, or get close and compose a macro shot. Please be aware that in addition to the Digital Photo Academy fee, the Houston Zoo charges a $19.95 entry fee, well worth it for the beautiful setting provided in this non-profit destination.
