Join Hunt’s Photo Education on a beautiful photo walk photographing plants and flowers with an emphasis on macro photography at the beautifully landscaped Massachusetts Horticultural Society Gardens at Elm Bank in Wellesley. During this walk, we will work on use of color, close up/macro photography, depth of field, exposure and use of reflectors/diffusers.
The Mass Horticultural Society Gardens at Elm Bank is 36-acres of beautifully manicured gardens. Each section of the garden is as exciting as the last, with numerous opportunities for photographing not only countless beautiful, healthy flowers and plants, but also interesting sculptures and walkways. The gardens are magical, with plenty of room to stretch out and are a treat for photographers of all levels. More information on the Mass Horticultural Society Gardens can be found here.
