Photographing the World Around You: A Visual Design Workshop for Film and Digital Photography

Product Description
Most photographic concepts – proper use of equipment, principles of composition, how to manipulate perspective – are actually better explained in pictures than in words. Step By Step Photography Workshop will capitalize on this truth by allowing images to carry the majority of the instructional burden, assisted by explanatory captions and as little supporting text as possible. Author and acclaimed photographer Adam Jones has furthermore shot the majority of the images specifically for this book, rather than merely dipping into his stock archive. The book will appeal to the serious amateur photographer, but its format will also draw photographers above and below that audience. By showing what doesn’t work and how it can be fixed through a series of steps, the reader can pick up concepts with a minimal amount of reading and remember them when it’s most important – on the shoot….

Professional Art tutors will set you off with ideas and techniques that will help you record and respond to what you see in a variety of ways – making good use of a camera, sketching with different materials, searching for colours, looking at textures, collecting objects.

It is surprising just how many possibilities and ideas there are. Apart from the technical assistance of the Art tutors, being part of a creative group will encourage, empower and inspire you.

You will be brimming with new ideas, new thoughts and a whole new energy.

The excursions and demonstrations are designed to maximise your creative experience in Nepal and ensure you have many memories and experiences to take back home.

Special arrangements are made for photographers depending on requirements.

It may be that you want to capture a particular part of life on the streets, a particular event, a particular aspect of Nepal – we will help you achieve these results.

We have art tutors specialising in photography that will be able to introduce beginners to the basic techniques in camera use, how to capture difficult images, how to improve their photographs with computer software, and how to use and manipulate photographs to make original art.

For experienced photographers, there is always something new to know. Being part of a group will allow you to attempt new ideas, will open your eyes to different possibilities and will give you feedback on the messages your images convey.
