Event details
What a great time to be an Alliance Member!
On August 10th from 10:30am pm – 12:00 pm, we are having our next Photography Club meeting led by photographer and multi-faceted artist Duncan Metts.
Photography Prompt: “Think Small”
This month, I invite you to shift your perspective and focus on the tiny, often overlooked details that surround us every day. “Think Small” encourages you to explore the world through a magnified lens, capturing the beauty in the little things.
What to Look For:
- Tiny Subjects: Consider photographing insects, raindrops on a leaf, or the intricate details of a flower. Look for the small things that we usually pass by without a second thought.
- Miniature Worlds: Explore tiny landscapes, such as mossy patches on a rock, the textures of peeling paint, or the microcosms in a puddle.
- Hidden Corners: Seek out small, overlooked spaces in your environment. This could be the corner of a busy street, the space between buildings, or a forgotten alleyway.
- Close-Up Details: Experiment with macro photography or simply zoom in on textures, patterns, and details that are easily missed when we’re not paying attention.
Tips:
- Get Close: Whether you’re using a macro lens, a significant crop or your phone’s camera, getting close to your subject will help you capture its details and textures.
- Play with Focus: Try different focus techniques to highlight the small elements in your frame.
- Use Lighting Creatively: Soft lighting can reveal delicate details, while harsher lighting might bring out textures and contrasts in your subjects.
Remember, “Think Small” isn’t just about the size of your subject; it’s about discovering the beauty and significance in the little things. Happy shooting, and I can’t wait to see you Saturday August 10th.
We look forward to seeing our existing Photography Club members and welcome those who wish to join!
Don’t miss out on this amazing experience!
