Street Photography

Saturday 01 March
Lackawanna Ave., Scranton - 10am - 2 Hours
Scranton Photography Group
Kathleen Fritch
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.

Composition in the Park

Composition in the Park

Saturday 12 April
Mulberry St, Scranton - 9am - 2 Hours
Scranton Photography Group
Kathleen Fritch
Come and join us as we explore composition in photography.

Composition is one of the most critical element in photography. Composition is how a photographer arranges the visual elements within their image, frame. I promise you that if you search for information on composition you will find plenty You will find formal rules, opinion, some of which you can trace back to historical art movements and painters.

Even in the digital world, composition remains the key to creating strong images. Composition is what guides our eye through an image and gives importance to the subject. It creates the story for the viewer and how we as photographers convey that message.

This meetup will explore composition using our frame and tools available to us as the photographer.

Title or Location: Aberdeen beach
I walk down the beach sometimes with my three dogs and I was rushing to get the walk done before it went dark. I had to stand and just look a the sky ( much to the annoyance of the dogs). Living near the sea the sky is ever changing and I don?t think people realise the colours that appear - hugely humbling. I wanted to show that Aberdeen is not just.a grey city.

Title or Location: Clovelly
I visited the North Devon Coast a couple of years ago and was mesmerized by the turquoise colour of the sea. Clovelly in particular seemed to capture the essence of this coastline. I walked out onto the harbour wall and took several photos. From these I chose one as my subject to paint
