What you'll learn in this composition class:
One of the main transportation hubs of Washington D.C. and one of the busiest in the whole country, Union Station offers an abundance of photographic opportunities. Your DPA instructor will show you how to photograph the beautiful architecture, how to approach people for a quick photo during their daily routine, and how to find the best angle in any situation.
Each person in the group of no more than 12 people will walk away with photos that are much more polished and professional. The small group size allows you to interact with your instructor as they teach you techniques of composition, color balance, and exposure control.
The station serves as a connecting point for national and local trains and buses, and houses a mall within its unique architecture, making it a destination for both travel and leisure, along with providing endless photographic opportunities.
Exact meeting place will be emailed to registrants.
Each Composition in the Field class begins with a talk with one of our experienced instructors, and then you and your fellow students take a stroll through one of a variety of photogenic locales (in any of the 20+ cities the DPA encapsulates). There is street photography, magnificent interiors, farmers markets, zoos, landscapes, and more, photos of which are included within. These photos are a mix of student and instructor images in many different venues and cities across the United States and Canada.
You will have fun in the three hour session, learn to shoot strategically, get more interesting photos of the event, and walk away with a foundation to improve your photographs in the future, whether you’re traveling, or at a birthday party and everywhere in between.
