Backlighting, Bokeh and Bursts at Leasowes Park
Saturday 04 July
Halesowen, West Midlands - 11am - 2 Hours
Martin Tierney
We will be using various techniques to maximise the behaviour of the light. Backlighting is one of my favourites and can be used for portraiture or nature. Bokeh is Japanese for blur but is a term used for soft out of focus balls of light which can look very pleasing. Burst in this case is star burst which can be achieved when you have strong areas of light and a correct choice of aperture. Use all three to create some amazing compositions.Leasowes Park. 3 Leasowes Lane, Mucklow Hill, Halesowen B62 8DH
