In the sixth episode of Capturing Nature with Lee Hoy, we have a segment of “On the Road” where we share the challenges of moving birders from birding with a camera to bird photography and the opportunities it presented during the 2022 Wildside Nature Tours Peruvian Amazon Riverboat Cruise. You can see a sampling of my images from this workshop below and you an see some of my favorite images from the Peruvian Amazon folder on my SmugMug.
In the second “On the Road” segment, we consider the final five tips on how to be a great photography workshop/class participant!
Finally, we conclude today’s podcast with a segment “Setting Yourself up for Success”where we will discuss image stabilization and how to develop an internal database of the lowest shutter speeds you can use with any specific camera/lens combination. This will vary based on your physical strength, handholding technique, and external factors such as wind, subject movement, and other environmental conditions.
