About this event
Nevada Wier
Seeing Photographically
March 20, at 7:00 PM ET
Travel photography is deceptively difficult. It is not enough to be at a colorful festival, have an interesting subject, or marvel at the wonders of Iceland or Namibia. The challenge is making an interesting image of a riveting or even an ordinary subject; an image that emanates emotion and wonder, releasing your inner artist. With a camera you are not just documenting the world, you are interpreting it. An image happens in the mind first, not the camera.
In this presentation Nevada will dissect what it means to “see photographically.” How to convert “looking” to acutely “seeing” the creative potential in front of you, and then how to translate it into a compelling photograph. Learn the limitations and advantages of your sensor, camera settings, and lens choice, and how to evaluate the light and shadows, color and form. Join Nevada to journey on the path to seeing photographically in your travels and personal projects.
