Our new Manchester street photography course will show you the city through new eyes.
It’s a half day course on Saturday July 18th running from 10am to 2pm with the emphasis on moving around the central part of Manchester city centre around Albert Square and St Peters Square, with minimal equipment, taking what we find as our inspiration.
We will meet outside the new entrance to the John Rylands Library on Deansgate (next to the Armani store) and from there our route will take into account the weather and light, making use of shelter from the buildings if it’s rainy.
At each location our tutor will explain what has caught his eye and how he intends to approach the photograph, explaining how he is setting up the camera so you can follow suit.
This is a very hands-on, practical and “on the fly course”, rather than a classroom tutorial so we will work quickly and flexibly. If you would like a more extended full day course with a classroom and practical element, our small group photography courses in Bury and Lymm will be more suitable.
Although the weather will play its part for good or bad and we will spend almost all if not all our time outdoors in public spaces.
The course is aimed at beginners and “beyond beginners” In other words it’s for people who are comfortable moving off AUTO settings but want to develop their skills in composing shots and trying to tell a story through the camera and its controls. Our tutors are very experienced and if you’ve ever been hesitant about asking a stranger if you can take their photograph our tutors aren’t and who knows what characters we might on the streets of Manchester!
Spaces are limited to 10 people and we won’t run the course if we don’t get at least six people signed up. If we do cancel the course due to lack of numbers a full refund will be paid to you within 24 hours.
The fee for the course is just £25.00 per person. Please bring your own snacks and drinks and of course we will be in the city if you need to grab something but we won’t be stopping for lunch during the course.
The course will start promptly at 10am and if you are running late for whatever reason, call us and we will tell you where we are, we won’t be far away.
