Nature with Tim Johnson

Join photographer Tim Johnson for a discussion on Nature Photography 

Description:

Nature photography is the focus of the presentation. The presentation will focus on general landscape photography, including waterfalls. Macro photography, primarily of flowers and bugs,  wildlife photography with emphasis on birds and just for good measure, I plan to throw in a little nighttime photography and I think we have the major areas covered.  Discussion of each will include the techniques and equipment required.  Given the wide variety of topics to photograph, I can suggest some places to go in the local area to practice.  Lots of photos will be on display and I hope you bring any questions you may have about your photography journey, or how you might start a new area of exploration or room for expansion of this lifelong hobby.  While many folks are satisified with cell phone photograohy, we will focus on the use of either DSLR or Mirrorless cameras during this presentation.  If you are looking to move towards a dedicated camera body, the discussion may be useful for when you reach that fork in the road.

Topics:

Learn about other aspects of nature photography

Learn about techniques for successful photo outings in the field

Hints about equipment that will make you a more successful nature photographer

Learn about locations in the area that provide good opportunities for subjects to photograph

Biography:

Tim Johnson lives in NW Arkansas and has been involved in photography for over 20 years.  While spending a large amount of time photographing wildlife, especially birds, any type of nature photography will catch his interest.  Tim has travelled across the country taking photos in many of the national parks, and last year had the opportunity to spend a week in the remote wilderness of the Wrangell-St. Elias National Park in southeast Alaska.  When not occupied taking photos, Tim also dabbles in restoration with native plants in the many gardens and native areas around his home.
