Introduction to Black and White Photography. What makes a good Black and White shot?

We will look at the contrast and using textures. How does the camera see the image and how do we create Black and White images in a camera or in post-production. We will look for some good examples and set some exercises.

This is a more advanced course and assumes you understand the basics of photography and controlling your camera.

Understanding Metering

Sunday 18 January

Harlestone Rd. - 10am - 2 Hours

Northampton Photography Group

Loredana Sabau

Metering is an incredibly important aspect of photography to grasp. You might have heard about the exposure triangle but I believe we should be talking about an exposure square with metering being the forth side as it is equally as important to getting the correct exposure as your aperture, ISO and shutter speed.
We will explore how and when to use each of the metering options and how to use it to get some creative lighting in your shots.

Title or Location: Eastern Rosella
When I was looking at my older photos I took with the beginner Nikon camera I came across the photo of Eastern Rosella perfectly displaying all lovely colours of the plumage. I thought it is could be great reference photo for the next painting project. I was right and I enjoyed the process.

While strolling through the village of Venasque in the south of France, my eyes were drawn to this window display featuring handmade pottery in various shapes and sizes. This is the demo from one of my watercolor classes, using grisaille painting to help my students understand tonal values.
