Andres Ortiz
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.

    Found the event to be extremely informative and useful. She gave me a great perspective on how to improve my composition which I believe will help me take better photos. She also encouraged me to shoot in manual rather than exclusively aperture priority to better learn the interaction of shutter speed, aperture and ISO which I think will be very beneficial to me.

    I love capturing sunrise or sunset alignments in and around Long Island landscapes. And every March there is a wonderful alignment that occurs at the Captree State Park boat basin, fishing pier. This is one of the images from such an alignment at this very location in March.

    Photo was taken with a Nikon D7000 with a Nikon 55-300mm 4.5 lens. I was out at sunrise and saw a lonely bench. I thought it just looked like a really nice photo with all the colors and the bridge in the background.

    Driving home after out playing with my camera taking photos on my co-workers farm, I drove past this dam. I've never seen it before as I'm still relatively new to this area. I immediately pulled off the side of the road and grabbed my gear. I am a follower of Gary Gough, a fine art photographer on YouTube. He said one way to learn is to copy someone else's work to learn and get better. So that's what I did. LOL. Using his teachings I combined long shutter speeds with ND filters that allowed me t

    As part of my final project as a fourth-year photography major, I chose to explore and document Calgary?s sculptures, which embody the history and heritage of its people and landscape. One of the highlights of my work is By the Banks of the Bow, one of the largest sculptural artworks in North America. To enhance the visual impact of the image, I utilized Photoshop, particularly to create a dramatic sky that seamlessly complements the dynamism of the horses and the cowboy.This piece celebrate

    This long exposure shot is from August, 2024. I was visiting Liberty State Park, New Jersey. From Liberty park you get such an AMAZING view of the NYC skyline looking across the water. It?s awesome during the day but even more magical at night as you can see. I?d recommend a visit here just for the views to anyone.
