Date and Time:

The compound eye, the fine hairs on a leg, the delicate pattern of a wing: some of the most striking stories in the insect world are far smaller than we notice. Tiny World, Big Stories is a half-day, hands-on macro photography workshop that shows you how to bring them into frame. Led by EOS Mentor Pang Way, the session opens with a short briefing on the essentials of macro photography, then moves straight into shooting. You will practice getting close, controlling depth of field and shaping light with a Speedlite, using Canon RF macro lenses supplied for you at the workshop.

• Date: 5 Dec 2026, Sat
• Time: 9am-1pm
• Language: Conducted in BM and Mandarin 
• Fee: RM20/pax includes light refreshment

The session is fully indoors, so you can shoot comfortably whatever the weather. Seats are limited to 20 participants.
