Photography Class: Composition in the Field - Gomez Mill House
Enhance your creative eye in this composition-focused photography class at Gomez Mill House.
Begin your class with an in-depth lecture from a skilled photography instructor. Then, venture through the natural site and view the stone architecture to enjoy endless opportunities for hands-on practice in refining your skills. Learn the rule of thirds by framing the house against the riverbank, use leading lines created by the crumbled stone walls to draw the viewer’s eye into your image and experiment by framing archways and tree branches to capture artistically appealing images. You will also explore symmetry and balance in the historic structure and practice layering foreground elements to add unique depth to your images. By the end of the session, leave with a collection of thoughtfully composed images that capture the uniquely beautiful character of this storied landmark.

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
