For his presentation this evening, Richard Bernabe will answer the following question, “What’s the secret to improving your nature, wildlife, or travel photos?”

Richard says that you can better hone your composition skills, develop a keener eye for natural light, and express your moments in nature in more emotional tones and you will certainly create more compelling images. You could also learn from the design principles used by master painters and artists through the centuries in creating their timeless masterpieces. These Six Principles of Art (sometimes listed as Principles of Design and/or contain as many seven or even eight components) are the guiding precepts in what makes art and design more aesthetically pleasing to the human eye and brain Richard will discuss each of these principles and teach you how to apply them to your photography.

Richard Bernabe is an internationally-renowned nature, wildlife, and travel photographer as well as widely-published author from the United States. His passion for adventure has been the driving force behind his life’s quest to capture the moods and character of the world’s most amazing places, from Africa to the Amazon to the Arctic and countless places in between.
