You'll want to bring a camera to capture the sheer beauty of the thousands of blooming flowers around the park. Here are a few photography tips to follow while at the Cedar Breaks Wildflower Festival so you can make the most of your experience!- Try to capture flowers that are not in direct sunlight. Sometimes direct sunlight can be harsh and make the photo's subject appear too bright. Instead, photograph flowers that are in the shade or softly lit by the sun.
- Get close to the object or scene that you are photographing. To truly capture the beauty and detail of these flowers, get more up-close and personal than you think is necessary to get the best possible picture.
- Bring along a tripod. This device will help to steady the camera creating an overall better effect.
