The Natural Eye
Level 2-4
In this weekend workshop, you’ll have a chance to explore photography and the natural world with master landscape photographer Eddie Soloway. Eddie is a respected educator with a great ability to inspire and reinvigorate photographers. His focus on an intuitive, emotional response to the landscape, paired with plenty of hands-on guidance will make this workshop a rare treat. You’ll learn to respond to the landscape around you and to capture the essence of places as you work to translate your vision into successful imagery.
This workshop is a chance to transcend technical concerns and focus on the art and craft of fine image-making. Visual exercises paired with hands-on shooting sessions in the field will help you to look at the world around you with fresh eyes and a new perspective. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided each day.
