Composition in the Park

Composition in the Park

Sunday 26 July
Lytham - 11am - 2 Hours
Blackpool Photography Group
Jayne Walsh
Come and join us as we explore composition in photography.



Composition is one of the most critical elements 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, opinions, 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.

    Good location for subject (if extremely windy!). Presenter/instructor approachable and knowledgeable - and started/finished on time. Only issue for me was limited learning (given my experience) - not the fault of presenter who did have some suggestions on different shots to try to capture.

    Got some great base knowledge and understanding. Reason not it a 5 is that I thought a bit too expensive, expected a takeaway handout given the cost.

    Title or Location: Glencoe Scotland.
    In the 70s and 80s I climbed many of the peaks in Glencoe. Now at 70 I am happier to photograph them. This was my second visit to the river Etive and as it turned out it was even more spectacular than the previous visit. In case you didn't know this is the same road they use in the film Skyfall. Glencoe tends to grab all the glory but my advice would be take time to travel down this road following the river Etive to the loch. In the right conditions high tide and no wind the photo opportunities
