Do you enjoy taking photos with your camera or mobile phone? Would you like to improve the quality of your pictures or are you planning your own photography project or photo book? Together we will learn the basics of digital photography and improve your photography skills. We will discuss the correct exposure, aperture, depth of field and how to choose the right ISO setting and lens. We explore the question: How do I compose a good picture? and look at image composition techniques such as motion blur, focus and leading lines. All of this will not only be learnt in theory, but we will also apply and deepen what we have learnt in practice during excursions. We will also discuss which image editing software you can use to get the best out of your photographs. At the end, each participant will have created their own photo series. Please bring along: Your own camera/mobile phone and operating instructions (if available). This course will be taught in English by Sandra Ratkovic. Dates: Fridays: 10.1., 17.1. , 24.1., 31.1.2025, 17-20 Sunday 26.1.2024 (excursion), 13-16
