About the event
Autumn colours lend themselves beautifully to photographers in all shapes and forms. Whether you like Panoramas or Macro there will be something for you at the Mt Lofty Botanic Garden.
The main lake and duck pond are probably the best place to photograph wildlife and autumnal colours at their best but wander anywhere and your lens will be richly rewarded. If you have never been there this is one of Adelaide's best kept secrets for photography where you can walk and photograph to your heart's content.
Come along and gets some tips and tricks for your Sony camera with taking photos in these wonderful gardens.
At 12 noon we'll meet for a chat back at the pop-up coffee van, which will be set up near the Lower Car park selling coffee, cakes, sandwiches, water and soft drinks.
Your host for the day is Adelaide's Sony Digital Imaging Advocate, Colin J. Pearce. If you get lost or run late, please phone him on 0408 426 546.
Friends & family most welcome, but please book a ticket for each person!

Event FAQs (For general FAQs, please visit the Frequently Asked Questions page)
There is ticketed parking, but that's actually a donation towards the running of the Garden. They suggest $1 for an hour or $3 all day.
If you accidentally go to the upper car park, it's quicker to drive out and go to the lower car park in 14 Lampert Road, Crafers.
