Photographing objects, to get the lighting just right in order to highlight beautiful details, is harder than it looks. During this 2 hour workshop we will look at the principles of photographing objects and try our hand at photographing one or two objects from the museum’s collection. Photographs taken by participants will be analysed and discussed during the session. This is a great opportunity to enhance your photography and lighting skills, under the guidance of Ricky Poon, in-house photographer at the University Museum and Art Gallery.
