People, cafes, vendors, street merchants, buskers, historic buildings, art installations and much more. The power of observation underpins the art of great street photography. Learning to "see" interesting detail is a practised skill and we introduce you to easy methods that will open your photographer's eye and expose you to a world that is alive with detail. The most rewarding part of the class is learning how to approach interesting people and have them willingly pose for you.We will also go over settings, focusing techniques and lens choices common to street photography to help us capture those random chance encounters.

    Timing is everything...and sometimes it's just the weather. Lindsay was an excellent host/instructor, providing the tools necessary to experiment and familiarize a more customizable way of capturing the different scenes. Unfortunately, the weather did not permit the focus of the class up until the very end so much of the direction was turned towards experimentation with the elements at hand.

    It?s very difficult to teach a course like this when you have people that don?t even have the program in their computer, or do and don?t know how to navigate it. Lindsey did a great job explaining the basics and repeating steps multiple times.

    Lindsey is an incredibly patient, generous, and flexible teacher. Unfortunately, we didn?t see much in the way of birds or even wildlife. The turtles were cute. I think this class would have benefitted from a different time of day. Midday tends to be a quiet time of day.

    While it might not seem like it at first, this is a macro shot. The vase is less than 2" tall. Was shot with a Sony A7RV and the Sony 100mm GM macro lens. It is a composite of 2 images. One taken with the flowers and one shot without. The two images were then combined in Photoshop to remove the flowers from the vase leaving the shadow.

    I took this image back in December the day I got my macro 100mm. I was just wondering around my yard taking pictures of random subjects. I loved the way the light was hitting this empty vase on my back porch. I did a simple edit, mainly decreasing shadows and increasing temp, texture and clarity.

With his tiny eyestalks on full alert and his deluxe spiral camper strapped to his back, he inched along like the ruler of the backyard kingdom.
