The United States Botanic Garden in Washington, DC

The huge conservatory at the United States Botanic Garden is an ideal setting for photographing a wide variety of flowers and other plants. We’ll have access to the conservatory early in the morning before it opens to the public so we can focus on mastering macro-photography techniques with our digital cameras. We’ll also explore the newly refurbished gardens around the conservatory for additional photo opportunities. This intensive two-day workshop, co-sponsored by the Corcoran Gallery’s College of Art and Design, is designed for all photographers who want to improve their images of floral close-ups and groupings. The workshop will emphasize individualized instruction and include training in simple but amazing after-capture photo editing techniques, so bring your laptop. For details and to register, click here.
