Bring nature into focus in this in-depth workshop, led by award-winning nature photographer Angela Robertson-Buchanan. Be awed by the 2023 Australian Geographic Nature Photographer of the Year, a South Australian Museum exhibition, then take that inspiration to the Australian Museum's pop-up photography studio in this three hour beginner's workshop.
Unlock the potential of your digital SLR camera and learn simple, but creative shooting techniques. Guided by Angela, experiment with your equipment's modes, aperture, ISO and shutter speed, before putting your new skills to work by photographing objects from the Australian Museum's taxidermy collection as well as a selection of live native animals including possums, reptiles and a delightful tawny frogmouth named Trevor.
Angela will discuss the considerations around ethical wildlife photography and how to get that perfect shot, without disturbing your subject or their habitat.
