Quick Details
Adjoining the very elegant and popular Hillwood Museum in upper northwest Washington, the gardens offer incredible opportunities for photography – the paths, the mansion, the greenhouse, the statuary, and the refurbished Japanese Gardens. You will pick up some tips on garden and estate photography and the use of your Macro lens.
The BIG news is that non-flash photography is now allowed inside the Hillwood Museum, with its extraordinary collection of Faberge eggs and other Russian artifacts. Mr. Luria will provide instruction on low-light shooting without a tripod inside a museum.
Includes Museum admission fee.
