A Workshop From The Nature Education Project
See the beauty of Port Elliot through a new lens - your smartphone! Join us for a relaxed morning of nature, photography and social connection.
Whether you’re wanting to take better photos on your phone or simply love spending time outdoors, this event is a fun and relaxed way to explore, learn, and connect with your local environment.
Guided by an experienced photographer and nature enthusiast, after a short presentation, you’ll take a gentle walk through the local Soldiers Memorial Gardens, discovering plants, birds, and wildlife. During the session you’ll:
Learn tips and techniques for taking great photos using your smartphone
Explore simple apps to edit and enhance your images, so your snapshots really shine
Gain insight into observing nature closely and noticing details you might usually miss
There’s no need for fancy equipment - just your phone and a sense of curiosity! Please note, the Memorial Gardens does have steps to navigate.
After the walk, we’ll gather for a cuppa and a chat, giving you the chance to connect with fellow nature lovers in the community.
What to bring:
Wear appropriate clothing and footwear for walking and spending some time outside
Be SunSmart, sunscreen will be available for you
BYO water bottle, we will have extra water to top up
