MACROPHOTOGRAPHY OFFERS A WINDOW INTO A UNIVERSE OF DETAILS INVISIBLE TO THE NAKED EYE. ON THIS OUTING, PARTICIPANTS WILL LEARN TO CAPTURE THE METICULOUS BEAUTY OF FAUNA AND FLORA, LEARN NEW PHOTOGRAPHY TECHNIQUES AND CAPTURE FASCINATING IMAGES.
Macro photography is a specialized technique that allows you to photograph small animals or plants at high magnifications, highlighting textures, colors and patterns that would normally go unnoticed. Portugal, rich in biodiversity, participants will be able to explore a variety of habitats, from forests and fields to marshes and coastal dunes, in search of insects, flowers, amphibians, and other small living beings. Equipped with macro lenses, participants will learn essential techniques such as choosing depth of field, using natural and artificial lighting, and composing images to highlight the most intricate details. These outings are ideal for those looking to deepen their photography skills and discover the hidden beauty of the natural world.
