This professionally-taught class starts with an hour-long, in-depth lecture, introducing concepts such as balance, perspective and the correct use of negative space. In the field, you will apply these techniques to frame the market’s vibrant scenes, from neon signs and vibrant flower displays to the motion of fishmongers tossing their daily catch. The small-group setting ensures personalized feedback as you work hands-on with your DSLR or mirrorless camera. Beginners and advanced photographers will work to create compelling images of this historic landmark. Have fun in this three-hour session, learn to shoot strategically, capture engaging photos and walk away with a strong foundation to improve your photographs in the future, whether you are vacationing, building a portfolio for a budding business or spending time with family and friends.

Richard patiently walked us through the steps and gave great instruction. I finally know how to navigate my camera that I've been using on auto for ten years. I'd definitely recommend this course to others
