“You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.”
― Ansel Adams
"Trust your intuition, focus and the camera in your hands. Forget about that 'perfect shot', work towards an ideal exposure and enjoy a special moment." ― Vernon Chalmers
Vernon Chalmers Photography Training
Professional Cape Town photographer / private photography trainer, workshop facilitator and publisher of various online Canon EOS / EOS R camera and photographic resources.
"I predominantly photograph Birds in Flight, Landscapes / Seascapes, Close-Up and Macro photography subjects with Canon EOS / EOS R Full Frame and APS-C bodies paired with a variety of Canon professional and consumer prime / zoom lenses.
I balance my creative time between my own photography and the research, development / presentation of various Canon EOS / EOS R / PowerShot Camera training and photography training. I facilitate the majority of my one-one photography training in Milnerton / Woodbridge Island and Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden, Cape Town." ― Vernon Chalmers
