Two days of digital landscape photography, covering the technical skills of using your DSLR camera and introducing the genre of landscape photography, its formal elements, key movements and practitioners.
We will meet in the studio each morning for a presentation and demonstration of technical camera skills including exposure settings and depth of field. We will then go out to locations in the surrounding area to shoot a series of images based on the morning’s topics. Leith has a wonderful mix of urban and natural landscapes with much to inspire a body of photographic work. Towards the end of the day we will meet back in the studio to upload work and discuss as a group.
Basic IT skills are required and students must bring their own digital SLR camera, lens, memory card and laptop for uploading photographs.
