Intermediate Landscape Photography Meetup

Intermediate Landscape Photography Meetup

Saturday 14 October
National Monument, Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada - 6:30am - 2 Hours
Las Vegas Photography Group
Continue your journey in this intermediate landscape photography class! You'll add to your technical skills by capturing the impressive transitions of natural lighting at dawn. By taking advantage of the delicate but fast shift from Nautical Twilight to sunrise, you will learn the critical skills necessary to "stay ahead" of the sun, and yield dramatic results. After sunrise, we will attempt to capture some photos of wildlife at dawn (provided that we find some), but we will certainly use the early morning conditions to both experiment with, and expand upon your technical familiarity to capture color shifts in landscape features.

SPECIAL NOTICE:
This class is meeting much earlier than the usual 10 am start-time that you may have seen in the past. Kindly factor in the early start if you are interested in participating.

We will gather at 6:30 am/0630 hours to hike to our vista spot, well before the sun starts to rise over the edge of the mountains. We will also have some time to set up and discuss the technical aspects in advance.

Architecture Photography Class

Architecture Photography Class

Saturday 04 November
Hacienda Rd, Newberry Springs - 10am - 3 Hours
Las Vegas Photography Group
As a unique unused collection of buildings, the years of graffiti and weathering have given this cluster of abandoned structures an ephemeral quality. The emphasis of the shoot will encompass both story-telling and a meditation on the progression of decay in the absence of human intervention. Considering the nature of the site, a variety of different compositions will be warmly encouraged.

Title or Location: Silvanus , God of Wild Nature.
Quite the beginner, I'm drawn to the magical aspects of nature. Semi abstract, wet on wet watercolour is my favourite , which allows me to paint wild nature, but put my own magical slant on it! This piece was inspired by a tutorial by Joanne Boon Thomas.

iCandy is my take on our ever increasing use of smart phones as a source of distraction. It is also a spoof of the marketing of these devices, and the marketing world as a whole, using design asthetics from candy and toy products and advertisements from my childhood in the 80's, particularly the ones emblazoned on my subconscious that played repeatedly during Saturday morning cartoons.

Title or Location: Miss Wary
I was taking a portrait drawing class back in 2019 with Frank Zamora at SCC. As somewhat of a perfectionist, I found myself struggling to let myself free in my work. I know what captivated me also captivated others...the lips, jaw lines, the nose, ears and the eyes can all look different and "change", based on angle and lighting.So this was the first time I decided to give up on proportions, let go, and just draw what I felt to me was weirdly beautiful. No one face is perfectly proportional,

These two little mice bring me pure joy everytime I look at them. It takes me back to my childhood of enchanted movies of woodland animals, imagination and play. I had to paint them, the whole process was pure joy, hence the title. Referance photo is by Belinda Fewings and can be found on Unsplash.
