Nature Photography Series - Insects and Butterflies

Did you know that one out of every three bites of our food, including fruits, vegetables, chocolate, coffee, nuts, and spices, is created with the help of pollinators?  Join us as we review tips for capturing great photographs of our summer pollinators including butterflies, bees, dragonflies, and more.  We will begin with a review of when, where, and how to photograph these flying wonders.  Following the review, we will head to the field to practice these techniques.  All types of cameras from smartphones to professional cameras and levels of photographers are welcomed.
Please be prepared to hike up to 1 mile on various terrain.
