On May 25th, the Forum will be on Bird Photography and will be given by Sam Schaen. He will discuss equipment needed, lighting, techniques for getting close to your subject matter, and places to do bird photography. The presentation will be illustrated with examples of good bird photography as well as mistakes to learn from.

Biography

Sam was introduced to serious photography when he met his wife, Marilyn, in 1983. She taught him photography and black and white processing. Much of Sam's early photography was a combination of landscape and people photography.

Sam and Marilyn became fascinated by birds while staying with a friend in Maine around 2000. They combined this fascination with a renewed interest in photography. In addition to local photography, the couple has photographed in Ecuador, the Falkland Islands, Africa, Brazil, Costa Rica, and Argentina.

Sam has been a member of NVPS since 2003. He has held the positions of Competition VP, President, and FotoFax editor.

The Forum will be presented after the Members Gallery Presentation on Tuesday May 25th 2010.
