Mike's Camera | Wildlife & Nature Images with Impact

Gain the fundamental tools to get the image you see in your mind- into the camera. In short… you’ll learn how to create images with impact that are both technically and aesthetically powerful and learn to manage the five key elements in play in every photographic situation:

1.	Learn how to command the camera instead of guess at the results.
2.	Learn how to evaluate any scene you intend to photograph for light, subject, background, Point of View and sight lines and to command the viewer's eye to the point of impact in the image.
3.	Learn how to select the right lens or lens settings.
4.	Learn how to 'find the light' and manage exposure.
5.	Learn how to emphasize or de-emphasize the elements in the scene to permit the viewer to engage the subject in the image more immediately.

Image Evaluation, Critique and Feedback
