DESCRIPTION
Join Phil Penman, the Leica Akademie and Leica Store Washington DC as we explore the Nations Capital.
During this workshop Phil Penman will highlight many of his favorite locations in DC, while demonstrating his approach to "seeing" and capturing both the dramatic compostions found in his work in addition to creating images that capture a sense of a place and its people.
There are thousands of stories to be told in Washington, learning to find these visual stories is the focus of this Masterclass weekend.
TOPICS:
- Planning your day of shooting
- Finding the light
- Chasing the light
- Seeing light and shadow
- Composition
- Gear and lens selection
- Image editing and processing
From practical, hands-on sessions in the field to editing and review of the images created, this weekend intensive will provide insights into Phil's creative process from start to finish. All Leica Akademie workshops provide a mixture of classroom lectures with time to put the concepts discussed into practice and finally the opportunity to receive feedback.
