Description
Harwich Photo Walk – Mastering Composition
Thursday 13th July 1.15pm – 4.45pm
Join me for photography scavenger hunt which is all about composition.
Landscape photography is all about making a successful image from the scene in front of you. Even if your view is dominated by amazing scenery it doesn’t follow that you will produce a stunning image without giving some serious thought to your composition. Similarly mundane scenery doesn’t mean you will come away with a dull image. It is all about your interpretation of what is in front of you and how you translate that into an image using composition.
The session takes the form of a photo walk around the maritime resort of Harwich where you will be given 10 compositional rules to apply to your images. Each rule will cover a useful way of constructing a photograph and will help you think in much greater detail about how to approach your photography.
You will receive a digital copy of my mastering composition workbook before the session and I will be on hand during the walk to offer tips and advice.
This walk is suitable for any camera type even a phone camera and is essentially about observation, learning to ‘see’ the environment and having a bit of fun with composition.
Please note this is a 3 mile long walk (in total, there and back). We will be walking from Dovercourt lighthouse to Harwich Pier along the prom with stops along the way for photography. There will be time for tea on Ha’penny Pier before heading back to Dovercourt.
