Street Photography Meetup

Street Photography Meetup

Saturday 15 August
University of Leeds - 3pm - 2 Hours
Wakefield Photography Group
Duncan Yi Chik Si
People, cafes, vendors, street merchants, buskers, historic buildings, art installations and much more. The power of observation underpins the art of great street photography. Learning to "see" interesting detail is a practised skill and we introduce you to easy methods that will open your photographer's eye and expose you to a world that is alive with detail. The most rewarding part of the class is learning how to approach interesting people and have them willingly pose for you.We will also go over settings, focusing techniques and lens choices common to street photography to help us capture those random chance encounters.

Title or Location: Maceley Cove, South Devon, UK.
Tis image was made using Windsor & Newton watercolour on A5 cartridge paper in my concertina sketchbook. I went camping in Devon for a week with a group of girlfriends. Most of us enjoy the process of art making so, I carried my small sketchbook and tin of paints to this beach with me. The beach is inaccessible by car and can only be reached by walking along a steep, narrow, rocky and winding cliff path. You have to carry everything you want to take on your back. I knew i wanted the chance to pa

Title or Location: Costa Brava Boats
Our family was vacationing in Tossa de Mar, Spain. We had ben out for a walk but it was beginning to rain and as we hurried home, I saw these boats up on the sand. I was just really drawn to them so I ran over and took a photo before the rain really started coming down. Months later, I decided to paint the scene.

Title or Location: Record Retreat
I wanted to capture the lovely lake house I was able to stay at. I know that this house is a special place for my in-laws and I wanted to honor that. I took a kayak out into the Sebego lake to capture the image I used as a reference photo. This is a mini landscape only 2.5x3.5 inches

Title or Location: A Lighthouse for Marcos
I took a class with David Lobenberg, a professional and master watercolor painter and master art mentor. He led us through, step by step, painting this lighthouse (a painting he has done several times). So, the composition is not original. But my execution of the painting is all my own. I painted this over two four-hour Saturday classes. Before this class and this painting, the last time I took a watercolor painting workshop was about 30 years ago, with artist Anne Gregory. In the years since,
