Houston Audubon Zoom Event

Are you a beginning bird photographer and need help getting started? Tim will share his passion for bird photography with a wide range of information for beginning bird photographers.

Agenda for this class will include:
-- Equipment recommendations and how to work with what you have
-- Which camera settings to use
-- How to get close to birds
-- Best time to photograph birds
-- Good spots to practice
-- Ethical bird photography
