Details:
Winter is the time of year where a lot of photographers put their cameras in the closet until spring – however, the winter landscape can offer incredible opportunities to sharpen your skills!
In winter, color won’t be much of an option. Therefore, you’ll have to sharpen your knowledge of composition, lighting, shape, shadow, pattern and texture. You can experiment with black and white imagery as well!
This class will start out with an introductory presentation in the classroom on the elements mentioned above, followed by a visit to the Garden for practical skills building. Instructor Lynda Richardson will demonstrate in the Garden first. Then, she will be available to assist as you explore and put your new knowledge to work.
We will have two shooting times, one before lunch and one after. After that, we will go back to the classroom and share some of our best photographs with the class in an open critique. This is always a fun exercise where everyone learns something, including the instructor!
If you want a winter photography challenge, consider signing up for the Winter Wonders class!
