All About Composition - 4 hr hands on PAID Workshop

4 hr $185 workshop [Book here ](https://theapertureclub.com.au/all-about-composition/) This 4 hr workshop is perfect for photographers at all levels.

You will learn to compose with depth of field as well as learn the very important skill of planning and positioning background elements to set the subject. Also explore the various ways to use light in your images and the effects we can create using different shutter speeds. Most importantly you will learn in easy steps how to use composition to create stunning photographs. https://theapertureclub.com.au/all-about-composition/

SSP WED - Northside Photography Chat

Meet for chat over a drink and snack or dinner. Tonight, if you are in the mood, we can discuss camera setup, technique, editing images or photo critique. If you wish to discuss any aspects of your camera or photography technique, please bring the manual and your camera. You may bring your laptop with your editing software installed & I will bring a laptop with Lightroom Classic installed. We can discuss any aspect of editing your images. Most image editors are similar, so even if using a different editor, the techniques are similar, mainly due to the menu system. Feel free to bring image(s) on a usb stick, SD, microSD memory card or an iPhone that supports Airdrop. Using Lightroom we can work on extracting the story of the image. If you want photo critique, pls bring print, or full size images, preferably not resized, on a usb stick, SD, microSD memory card or an iPhone that supports Airdrop. Please do not ask for a critique on images displayed on a mobile phone, too small a display to be critical. More info on the venue here chatswoodrsl.com.au Plenty of free parking available nearby as well as the bus stop at the door or metro & rail just 50m away.
