FRESH & NEW WAYS TO CAPTURE SPRING

Every season brings something unique to the photographic table, but as the natural world begins to awaken from its winter slumber, it’s always spring that reignites our motivation. The landscape once again becomes bathed in lush greens, and our gardens start to fill with colour and play host to birds and insects.

So whether you’re a landscape, macro, wildlife or even still-life photographer, spring has something to offer everyone. Photographic opportunities are almost everywhere, and you don’t even have to travel far to enjoy them. From birds feasting on the feeders in your garden and colourful flowers to indoor projects when the weather isn’t on your side, spring is the season we’ve all been waiting for – and that’s why the next 12 pages are full of ideas and inspiration for picking up your camera and going on a springtime photo adventure…

1 Capture a classic 
Use your macro lens to focus on the intricate details of garden and woodland flowers

1 Shoot from the ground 

Get low to the ground using either a tripod with an articulating centre column for maximum support, or a beanbag to help keep the camera steady as you lay on the ground to shoot flowers. An alternative option is to use a mini tripod such as a Manfrotto Pixi or Vanguard Vesta Mini.

2 Focus on the right place
