Photography Workshops for Beginners |
||||
The workshop starts with absolute fundamentals adding each new concept in a clear and logical way, which you will then put immediately in to practice. Subjects covered include; Understanding Exposure, how to prevent under and over exposure using the Histogram combined with Exposure Compensation. Take the guess work out of exposure control. Setting White Balance for natural colour. You will learn how to match the camera's white balance to the colour of the prevailing light. You will also learn how to use WB creatively; turn night in to day, add warmth to a portrait. You will learn how to control movement with Shutter Speeds. We look at how to freeze fast moving subjects and how to create a milky appearance in flowing water. We will explore using Apertures to throw distracting backgrounds out of focus (or keep interesting back in focus). We will discuss important accessories including filters, lenshoods, flash and imaging software. |
