Warm-Up Exercise


Pick one of the artists from the links list to the right (except the instructor!) and spend some good quality time looking at their work. What strategies or approaches has the photographer used that you admire? Jot a few things down. Is there anything you have identified that you could use in your own work?

Shoot two separate 30-minute sessions between now and next class (Monday 8/27)

Take your camera for a walk somewhere that is visually interesting for you... make it an adventure.

Shoot wide views, close-up details, use interesting and unusual perspectives, as well as strategies identified from above. Shoot quickly, without over-analyzing. Subject matter is wide-open.

Note any questions or difficulties you might be having with your camera or otherwise. See if you can work them out, or bring concerns to class.

Shoot Camera RAW or if you must, JPEG highest quality. Automatic exposure is fine for now.

Bring camera, tether,  card and card reader to class—some method to download images to computer.
