About this Event
Photography in Nature: Creative and Abstract Nature
Come and join us for a creative and artistic workshop looking at nature photography as art!
Embracing the shifting seasons, we experiment with camera settings and techniques to create varying levels of sharpness and blur.
We start with camera exposure – but with a difference; in this workshop we contrast classic sharp focus photography with intentional camera movement (ICM) to create a creative, painterly effect.
Delving into the mysteries of slow shutter speeds, we overlay the interplay of light and shadow. We then look at the role of viewpoint and composition in order to create a striking abstract image.
What to bring? Your camera fully charged and additional memory cards. A mid-range zoom lens is perfect and a longer lens if you have one.
Is this workshop for me? This course is ideal for all levels of photography, and is an excellent stepping-stone if you have some basic knowledge of your camera.
How will we be learning? A mixture of classroom, 1-1 tuition and out-door practical experience.
