Basic Photo Workshop
designed for students, parents, grandparents...anyone!
Most of us can “see” in the ordinary sense of the word, but unless sight is guided by creative vision, picture-taking efforts seldom result in compelling imagery.
Anyone with a good camera can take decent photos, but learning how to see and use light effectively is an essential building block to becoming a good photographer. To learn to see, creatively, is a skill that will take your photos from ordinary to extraordinary and will help you to appreciate the simple things that you see around you every day. This workshop is designed for various levels of expertise. You can set your own pace and choose your level of learning. The prompts in this set are similar to a full semester of study in any introductory photography course. Take your time, look around, try to see your surroundings through your lens and perhaps you will see things in a way you have never before. |
Assignments:
For each prompt, a photo is assigned based on instructions. Following the prompts in order is recommended, however it will be helpful to skim all assignments before starting, to ensure you are keeping an eye out for subject matter that matches each project. |
