Celebrate spring at Merck Forest & Farmland Center with photographer Thom Williams. Explore Merck’s barns, pastures, wetlands, woodlands and vistas during this one-day photography workshop. Participants will have special access to fields, barns and pastures, as well as information about Merck’s plants, land and animals, as we explore the many opportunities for nature photography that this extraordinary campus offers. A walk-and-talk structure makes the workshop equally appropriate for advanced and beginner photographers, for users of SLR and cell phone cameras. Thom will offer individualized guidance to support each student’s interests. Get a sense of the magnificent setting here: https://www.merckforest.org/.
