Fun photo walk challenge to get you out of your comfort zone

About the event

Ready for a fun photo challenge?

Join me for a photo walk amongst the beautiful and varied surroundings of Western Springs Lakeside Park.

A photo challenge with instructions will be given to all attendees prior to the event commencing - this will involve sunrise landscape and bird photography.

Photographers of all ages and levels of experience are welcome to attend, however having a basic understanding of how to navigate your camera's menus and change settings will help you make the most of this event. It's a great opportunity to talk photography with like minded people, take some stunning photos, and get outside of your comfort zone!

Instructions on where to meet will be provided to attendees before the event.

You don't need a Sony camera to attend this event, but a selection of Sony cameras and lenses may be available to try during the morning. Please email me at least two weeks prior to the event if there is anything specific you would like to try.
