This two-part class for naturalists and nature-lovers looks at photography as a tool for learning and
communicating about the world of plants. Session 1 will focus on shooting, including time spent out on
the trails (bring digital camera, macro and landscape lenses, and tripod). Session 2 will cover image
handling and collection management, including color correction, metadata, and web posting. Creating a
meaningful body of work will be emphasized. Participants should be familiar with the basic operation of
their cameras. Home computer with internet access recommended. Tom Potterfield is a volunteer
naturalist and photographer at Bowman’s Hill and Longwood Gardens. He has a masters degree from
the Annenberg School of Communication at the University of Pennsylvania and spent over 20 years
making television documentaries.
