About this Event

One of our favorite workshops is back! Join us for a special session where you'll photograph birds of prey in flight. Photographing birds in flight is full of special challenges, so this hands-on session is full of tips & techniques to help you get some great shots.



Key topics for this session
  • Stopping fast action
  • Tracking focus
  • Animal behavior & anticipating the action
  • Composition, light, and the figure/ground relationship



Gear to consider
  • Interchangeable-lens camera - Most all-in-one type cameras aren't quite fast enough!
  • Fast telephoto lens - e.g. 70-200mm f/2.8, 100-400mm or equivalent.
  • Fast spare memory cards - we'll be on continuous shooting mode a lot! Plan to take hundreds of photos to get a few good ones.
  • Extra batteries
  • Monopod if you're worried about the weight of your camera, or to assist with panning.

Class size is limited, we can not overbook this session.
