Black & White Portraits Outdoors
Saturday 28 September
Royal William Rd - 11:30am - 3 Hours
Caleb Williams
Learn how to use natural light to advantage when working on outdoors black & white portraits. This workshop will take place in the historical setting. The old master painters had a special word - chiaroscuro -(meaning light-dark) for the dramatic quality of shadow in portraits. This concept, as it relates to black and white portraiture, will be fully explained. The importance of 'catch lights' in eyes & 'bokeh' (for dreamy, soft backgrounds) will also be addressed, as will the advantage of shooting in "open shade". Portraits will be taken with black and white conversion in mind, but can also be enjoyed in colour as well. The textured, stone walls and arcaded walkways in the venue will offer an atmospheric setting for this workshop!

Abstract photography by the sea, a chance to pursue art for art's sake and photograph the world as an artist would!
This workshop will focus on colours, patterns, and textures around the shoreline . If you enjoy looking at shimmering reflections, the tangled forms of seaweed, or at shell encrusted rocks, this workshop may be for you. You will be encouraged to really look - to find the poetry in simple things - while avoiding visual cliche. Come and refine your photographic vision in a relaxed setting by the sea!
Autumn Photography in Devonport Park
Saturday 02 November
Devonport - 12pm - 2 Hours
Caleb Williams
This workshop invites us to slow down and 'focus' on the world in front of us. Our subject will be the changing face of Devonport as it takes on the gold and copper tones of autumn. We will experiment with perspective and aperture to capture things such as fallen leaves, and the dramatic tonal values of treetops. The workshop will provide deeper understanding of composition and depth of field as we experiment with different styles of shooting. We will create a landscape 'story' - composed from still-life and large ensemble elements. Come and enjoy a photography walk in crisp autumn air and experience this magical season in the park.
