Shooting candid PHOTOGRAPHY IN THE STREETS IS CERTAINLY DIFFERENT
SINCE THE PANDEMIC. After six months of experience DAVID HERMAN WILL
SHARE HIS TECHNIQUES FOR GETTING GREAT UN-posed images in this new
environment. This one day online WORKSHOP WILL INCLUDE TECHNIQUE,
composition, and equipment choices. Just bring your desire to wander
and observe. A sense of humor is always welcome. The
instruction/presentation slide show will be online (via Zoom) in the
morning. Participants will be given an assignment and take
photographs in a location of their choice. This will insure safety
and eliminate travel time. Later in the afternoon we will reconvene
online for a review session. For those who do not want to shoot that
day, they can submit any previously taken images for the review.
TOPICS WILL INCLUDE:
+ How to anticipate and find the best moment + Setting up a good
foreground, mid ground and background (layers) + When to choose
color vs. black and white + How to put life into an ordinary scene +
The importance of patience and when to move on + The art of
cropping (or not) + How not to get noticed and what to do if
approached by a subject WORKSHOP SCHEDULE (APPROXIMATE TIMES)

_INSTRUCTOR BIO:_
DAVIDS FIRST MEMORABLE PHOTOGRAPH WAS A SHOT OF A YOUNG MAN SHINING
SHOES IN MANHATTAN SEVERAL DECADES AGO. Since then his STREET IMAGES
HAVE WON AWARDS AND BEEN DISPLAYED IN GALLERIES. For many years he
was a professional photographer shooting fashion and weddings. He is
now an investment banker but always finds time to wander the
STREETS. His favorite PLACES ARE SIDE STREETS WHERE TOURISTS DONT
VISIT. DAVIDS GOAL IS TO FIND UNIQUE SETTINGS TO CAPTURE A MOMENT
IN TIME THAT REVEALS SOMETHING PARADOXICAL about the human condition.
He uses a small lightweight mirrorless camera thats unobtrusive and
easy to carry with one hand. http://www.davidhermanphotography.com
