Tim Poly returns to The Arts Center Saturday, May 26 from 12pm-5pm for a Master Photographers Workshop. Any level of digital camera and any level of photographic experience is welcome. The best way to improve your photography is by immersing yourself in great photography. We’ll do that by studying the photos of four Masters of Photography – Andre Kertesz, Eugene Smith, Elliot Erwitt and Michael Williamson. Their work (black & white as well as color) touched the eyes, minds and hearts of people around the world. We will hear their thoughts, investigate their techniques and discover their images We will study their classic rules of photo composition and make new ones. We will use these four Masters of Photography as a foundation to build a set of skills to take compelling photos of people, buildings, flowers and landscapes. We will then spend time shooting and applying these principles. Advanced registration is required. The fee is $50. Call The Arts Center at (540) 672-7311 or email us at thertsorange@aol.com to register.
