**This class will be presented as a hybrid learning opportunity, with classroom instruction via Zoom and on-location field trips**
Capture the fascinating world of small subjects. Determine the correct equipment to use for close-ups such as macro lenses, diopters, bellows attachments, extension tubes, tele-extenders and telephoto lenses. Overcome inherent problems with photographing very small subjects, such as short depth-of-field problems, distance relationships in focusing-- the close-up focusing conundrum. We also will discuss and practice stacking technique, the process that creates and isolates to produce the perfect close-up photograph. There will be five classroom sessions (critique and lecture) and four field trips.
