For this workshop, we will be working on Street Photography in Harvard Square. Harvard Square, given its famous local lore, location next to Harvard University, and close proximity to Boston Massachusetts, draws many thousands of visitors per year who come to shop, eat, drink, and visit local historic and cultural sights in the square. Given the volume of people and traffic, there is a constant sense of motion and activity in Harvard Square. This walk is a terrific opportunity to work on street and candid photography, with plenty of subject matter. We will discuss managing ISO and shutter speed in low-light conditions to never miss a shot, as well as the art of blending in and going unnoticed.
We will also try to get it all right in camera! While you are welcome to shoot in RAW, we’ll also discuss the joy of shooting for the end result in JPEG! Join us for a fun walk!!
