Description:

The first of its kind in the United States, Boston's Public Garden is full of charming landscaping and natural beauty—the perfect destination for a photo enthusiast. Pick up shooting tips and techniques as you explore this historic site with a professional photographer as your guide.

Meet your attentive local guide at the entrance to the Public Garden and begin your exploration on foot, capturing snapshots of the brightly colored flowerbeds, elegant stone statues, and cascading fountains that dot this expansive park. If you're working with an SLR or a point-and-shoot camera, learn how to modify camera settings like white balance, aperture, and shutter speed. Even if you're just snapping shots of the scenery with your phone, benefit from pointers on creative composition and lighting.

Meander by the park's pond, where the famous Swan Boats have been paddling across the calm waters since the 1870s, and then continue out onto the Charles River Esplanade. After all that time among the flowers, practice your newfound photo skills on some of Boston's historic urban architecture with a stroll through Beacon Hill or the Back Bay.

You can continue honing your photographic artistry long after your tour comes to a close thanks to a helpful electronic copy of the book Guide to Creative Photography, which is chock full of useful pointers, camera basics, and expert tips for novice and experienced photographers alike.
