This new series of workshops, part of the Seed to Bloom programme will select a seasonal flower each month

See-Take-Make with Celia Henderson

MAY 2. THE TULIP

Date and Time: Two Sessions:

May  7 & 9  6:30 to 8.00 pm

 We’ll start at the end of the process by visualising the finished masterpiece, consider your intended output (print medium, digital). That directs us to the take stage, what equipment, lens, camera settings, backgrounds, compositions, lighting, do we need. And before you even click the shutter button, reflect on the features and magic that can be applied from the post processing software.

Whether you are seeking to create a sharp botanical study, a still life, a competition entry or a dreamy watercolour painting, let me guide you through the “See-Take-Make” workflow. With each workshop putting seasonal flowers in the limelight, we will put our vision plan to the test and consider how to best capture the shot(s) and which tools will be required to complete the post processing workflow, so you are fully prepared and motivated to capture the tulips of spring, the sweet peas of summer, the glorious dahlias and rudbeckia of autumn and the resilient snowdrops in winter. More detail below.

The Workshops

What will we cover:

• What do you see
• Location, planning and outcomes
• What’s our approach
• What equipment, camera, lenses, accessories
• By how much (if at all) can we control the lighting
• Camera settings to achieve your visualisation
• A lot of post processing skills – to enhance the capture and complete the vision

Each workshop will incorporate one or more approach and discuss the suggested equipment (including a pair of scissors and a dental mirror), how to manage the light, backgrounds, composition and which post processing tools give the ultimate results

Covering a whole variety of approaches – just look at the list …  this links to the list
