photography course

joy newbould photography workshop

What was the title of the activity? 

Getting to know your digital camera

What art form did you try? 

Photography, Using a digital camera to take photographs of scenery. 

Why did you take this workshop?

I wanted to start to learn how to capture a photos true potential.

Who taught the event, and what did you learn about this teacher?

My teacher was called joy newbould and i learnt that she was knowledgeable about photography and enjoyed doing it.   She was very encouraging and easy going.    She has worked in a wide variety of photographic environments and she does lot of wedding photography and nature photography. She also plays brass instruments. 

Did you create any artwork? Describe it and the processes you undertook when you created it: 

I took several photographs on the walk.  With the photos I had to put the theory we learnt in the class session into practice.  I had to make sure the aperture was right and that the iso matched it. I also had to make sure the focus was in the right place and the camera took the right amount of time to take the photo.

List some new skills or ideas you learnt: 

i learnt about how to use my flash on the camera, my iso and other basic tools on the camera's manual setting which I had not used before. 

Did you enjoy the activity? Why? 

I enjoyed learning and trying out the cameras different settings as I was looking forward to trying and foreseeing how i might use my new skills.
