About this Event
Bug Walk!
Join Nikon Ambassador and iLCP Associate Fellow Kristi Odom and Nikon rep Joel Bremer for a good old-fashioned bug walk! Head to Union Bay Natural Area, borrow some Nikon gear, and see what tiny creatures, colors, textures, and details we can find hiding in plain sight.
It's a chance to slow down, look closer, experiment, and have fun with macro photography. Along the way, Kristi will share how she finds and approaches tiny subjects, works with light and focus, plays with composition, and uses different techniques to turn small discoveries into creative photographs.
Come curious, play with some gear, and let's see what we can find!
(limited selection of Nikon cameras and lenses will be available to loan)
What to bring
- A camera
- A macro lens (or telephoto if you wish to take photos of the birds in the area
- An SD card
- An I.D. (if you wish to borrow a Nikon body or lens)
- Comfortable walking shoes
Where to meet
The group will meet at the UW Botanic Garden Center for Urban Horticulture Parking Lot before walking into the Union Bay Wildlife Area. 3863 Union Bay Circle Northeast.
