Walk Description
Join Hunt’s Photo Education on a beautiful and unique photo walk photographing plants and flowers with an emphasis on macro photography. During this walk, we will work on use of color, close up/macro photography, use of tripods, depth of field, exposure and use of reflectors/diffusers.
The Cochato Nursery is a wonderful plant and flower nursery in Holbrook, Massachusetts that features many outdoor plants and flowers that we will be able to photograph. The Cochato Nursery is often very busy on evenings and weekends, and so this walk will be taking place in the morning during the week. Please make sure to give yourself plenty of time to get to the nursery, as it is during the normal Friday morning commute!

Updated COVID-19 Policies for outdoor Hunt’s Photo Walks and Workshops
Hunt’s Photo Education is aligning with CDC and state guidelines and will no longer require face masks for our outdoor Photo Walks. If you are more comfortable wearing a mask, please feel free to do so. We also recommend bringing a mask, just in case. We also ask that you maintain social distance of 6 feet from one another.
Hunt’s Photo Education will still adhere to our 8 person attendee maximum per Photo Walk with a single instructor (unless otherwise noted).
As always, if you are sick or feeling unwell, STAY HOME! We will gladly give you a credit towards a future walk.

Dress and Gear:

•Make sure to dress accordingly with the most current weather report.
•You may want to consider bringing something to kneel on for the ground, as you will likely be working near the ground.
•For lenses, feel free to bring macro lenses, extension tubes, or long focal length lenses. Standard zoom lenses will also come in handy. If you have any small reflectors, those will also help.
•Remember to bring your tripod with a quick release plate.
•Due to rain or dew on the ground, you will likely want to bring a pad to kneel on.
•You may also want to consider extra memory cards and an extra battery.
•A good, fun attitude is always recommended!
