This lecture and hands-on workshop/program promises to be an exciting night!

Art will be presenting a lecture and hands-on workshop for shooting macro photographs using lighting provided only by the standard "pop-up" flash found on many cameras. Using a simple home-made bounce flash and support bracket, plus a variety of close-up lenses, extension tubes, or stacked add-on lenses, he manages to produce amazing macro images having true studio-quality lighting, for a fraction of the cost of a system utilizing multiple flashes, ring lights, or expensive factory-made support brackets.

Join us Wednesday, February 1, 2012 at 7:30 for our BWPS Program night. Art has provided two reference documents, Macro Image Guide Sheet and Macro Handout.
