Join one of DPA’s award-winning instructors for a morning at the San Francisco ferry building and farmer’s market. Learn how to maximize your composition skills, both while shooting and when processing your images.
The first part of this class will focus on learning how to pick a lens, adjust your settings, and use light to create images with effective compositions. The second part will involve an image critique and learning how tools like Nik Software’s Color Efex let you further create a unique image.
This class will be a lot of fun, and the farmer’s market also provides some great food to eat before and after shooting.
Meet outside the north entrance of the ferry building, along the north side of the building.
Each Composition in the Field class begins with a talk with one of our experienced instructors, and then you and your fellow students take a stroll through one of a variety of photogenic locales (in any of the 20+ cities the DPA encapsulates). There is street photography, magnificent interiors, farmers markets, zoos, landscapes, and more, photos of which are included within. These photos are a mix of student and instructor images in many different venues and cities across the United States and Canada.
You will have fun in the three hour session, learn to shoot strategically, get more interesting photos of the event, and walk away with a foundation to improve your photographs in the future, whether you’re traveling, or at a birthday party and everywhere in between.
