Our travels and journeys take us to places we never may visit again. On these trips we want to document where we have been and for the most part capture a sense of place. The camera becomes our voice through our visual interpretation of the landscape. In this course you will learn how to create an effective photo essay that becomes your own personal interpretation of the places you visit. Good photographs are made not just taken -- you will learn how to create an image not just take a picture.
Through the use of simple techniques, you will learn to take an effective portrait of people in the outdoors, how to enhance your landscape images, add emotion to your pictures and how to get the most out of the tools you have. We will spend time wandering through the village of Haliburton and surrounding areas looking for places of interest where we can set our cameras up to create your visual interpretation of the landscape.
Through assignments, critiques of your work and slideshows, you will learn what it takes to be a more effective photographer.
N.B. Please note both digital and film cameras are welcome in this course.
