Street Photography Meetup

Street Photography Meetup

Sunday 25 May
Argyle St, Glasgow G3 8AG - 10am - 2 Hours
Glasgow Photography Group
Hassan Nezamian
A list of the most influential street photographers of the past century."The essential attribute of street photography is chance - and that's likely why we're so drawn to it. Unlike documentary photographers, who wish to tell an overarching story of the subjects and places they capture, often for news publications, street photographers take photographs of fleeting moments that may exist outside of a greater narrative. Often, they are only meaningful for the single moment they capture.The street photographers of the world might envy photographers who take portraits or stage photo shoots. The latter group gets to control and create an image before taking it, which seems a hell of a lot easier than being able to get the perfect moment on camera as it occurs spontaneously. The street photographer has to wait for just the right moment to capture something worth shooting.The whole point of street photography is to capture happenstance - unplanned moments in public space. Often this involves humans sometimes doing funny things, like tripping or making strange expressions, but sometimes street photography just captures the photographer's surroundings. Although it can be similar to architectural photography, it doesn't have to focus on the structures in front of a lens. Instead, the focus of a street photograph is the composition of random objects coming together in a photographer's frame. The talented street photographer captures these chance happenings in a meaningful and engaging way. "

People, cafes, vendors, street merchants, buskers, historic buildings, art installations and much more. The power of observation underpins the art of great street photography. Learning to "see" interesting detail is a practised skill and we introduce you to easy methods that will open your photographer's eye and expose you to a world that is alive with detail. The most rewarding part of the class is learning how to approach interesting people and have them willingly pose for you.

We will also go over settings, focusing techniques and lens choices common to street photography to help us capture those random chance encounters.

However, as we only have a limited time to cover each of these topics, please keep a copy of this course guide and practice these tricks and techniques over and over again whenever you can.Taking great photos takes time, practice, patience and consideration. In the beginning stages,it is very easy to become frustrated that your images don't capture your subject as you would like to.

Fabulous time had by my group. I must say your choice of Facilitator was spot on. Joelle made everyone feel included and comfortable. Joelle was a great person to handle every level of student experience and confidence. Joelle was attentive to each persons needs. Her keen eye and the artistic knowledge of art techniques and suggestions actually transformed my attempts. I?m grateful to acquire new skill. In a short time. I felt she was generous with her time and no one was left behind. I would definitely book with Joelle again.

Title or Location: Boathouse Rouken glen park
Me and my partner often go up and walk round the pond for exercise -- followed by going into the boathouse for roll and sausage and T. Taken so many photographs on our walks and so was only natural to do a couple of oils. It's at its most photogenic in Autumn with low sun and the leaves turning to copper

Title or Location: A northern river, water flow and ice
"A Northern river, water flow and ice" (actual size 18x24" oil on panel)I have been fortunate to have a couple of friends who live in the Duluth area. They often walk the area by the Seven Bridges Road and take photos of the streams and river in that area. I saw several of their photos posted and realized the photos tied in strongly with my interest in painting rivers and moving, sometimes turbulent, waters. This one was during the Spring melt a few years back.This painting was shown severa
