Picture-perfect venue for happy snappers

Picture-perfect venue for happy snappers

There’ll be bugs aplenty at iconic Hollard Gardens, Kaponga, on Sunday (20 March) – shutterbugs, that is.

The occasion is a workshop on ‘the art of garden photography’. The five-hour workshop is free and open to the public – please register by emailing workshops@trc.govt.nz.

Participants should bring a camera, rather than a phone, and will have the opportunity to roam the 4.5ha property, whose world-renowned plant collection offers plenty of colourful and interesting photo opportunities.

The workshop will conclude with a discussion and critique session, where participants will be able to share tips on composition and lighting.

Sunday’s workshop runs from 10am to 2pm at Hollard Gardens, 1686 Upper Manaia Road, Kaponga. Register atworkshops@trc.govt.nz and bring lunch and your camera.

The workshop is part of a year-round programme of free public events at Hollard Gardens, Pukeiti and Tupare, the three heritage properties owned and managed by the Taranaki Regional Council on behalf of the people of the region.

For more information, see www.hollardgardens.nz, www.pukeiti.nz and www.tupare.nz. Social media users can also follow the Taranaki Regional Council gardens on Facebook (TaranakiRegionalGardens) and Twitter (@TaranakiRG).
