Architecture Photography

Saturday 08 February
Smallman Street - 10am - 2 Hours
Pittsburgh Photography Group

Architectural photography can be a great way of exploring and documenting a city, whether it's your home or on holiday. Its about capturing not only the design and accurate representation of a building, but to have the shots be aesthetically pleasing to the viewer's eye. An architectural photographer makes pictures, not takes pictures.

In this session, we will be covering how to better understand Architecture photography and we'll be looking at ways to take some impressive shots and the camera settings to use.

Macro photography is a unique form of photography that involves photographing small objects to make them look life-sized or more significant in the photo. The usual subjects include flowers and small insects, which we don't normally get to see up close with the naked eye.

The class will start when the insects are more active. So be ready to explore and capture breathe-taking macro images.

Title or Location: Her Charming Glade
Her charming Glade was created solely based on the image of this wonderful woman searching for love. The elements of this three dimensional piece, subject, background and floral foreground, all came from different sources.

Events occur early on in life. Children process these events in different ways and they become overwhelmed. My grandson went through a difficult period in his family that left him sad and withdrawn.
