Explore the art of personal expression through landscape photography. Tsar Fedorsky, a fine arts photographer whose own work draws on images found near home, will encourage students to discover their own visual voice by choosing to take landscape photographs close to home.
Nature is all around us. You don’t need amazing views to create your vision. It is by studying light over a period of time that students can better understand how light affects the feel of a photograph and can dramatically change their landscape work. Weekly assignments will challenge students to work under a variety of different lighting and atmospheric conditions. Slideshows and critiques will help students develop their editing skills as well as find their individual voice. This 8 week workshop is designed to allow students to experiment and discover what works best for a unique vision.
Requirements: camera with wide to normal focal length, tripod, as well as some knowledge of Photoshop or Lightroom. Film photography is also allowed, if the student would prefer to work with an analog camera. Knowledge of manual camera settings and basic post-production.
This online class uses the Zoom platform.
No class, Tuesday, April 2nd.
