Overview

This two-lesson unit covers macro and nature photography. I think these two lessons work well together because many nature photographers are also keen macro photographers, myself among them. Along with the fully-illustrated lessons there are a number of projects to complete. Photography is a practical subject so it’s important to get out and take photographs. (That’s the fun part in any case). Once you have completed the projects, you then email them back to me and I’ll assess each image and reply with a constructive critique for each one. There is no time limit for this course – you work at your own rate. I think this is one of the big benefits of a distance learning course. If you have any questions during or after completion of the course, help is available. We are either an email or phone call away.

Description

The macro lesson looks at equipment needed for macro photography which can be surprisingly inexpensive. It covers composition, lighting, technical aspects such as depth of field, shutter speed, focusing the subject and focus-stacking which is an incredibly useful technique to extend the depth of field of the finished image.

The nature lessons looks at many aspects of wildlife photography. Again, it covers what equipment is needed for nature photography, composition, lighting, depth of field, how to control camera-shake, creative use of shutter speed, field craft and finding a subject to photograph in the first place.

Who is this course for?

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
