Urban Photo Safari Session 3 - Ottawa, IL 2025

Let Annette take you on an exciting Urban Photo Safari! You and your fellow campers will head out into the urban wild armed with your cameras and an assignment. But first, you will learn how to use your point-and-shoot camera and what some of those settings mean. After our equipment review it’ll be off to the wilds of the Ottawa streetscapes and alleyways to see what we can discover while viewing the seemingly normal world around us from a different point of view. Campers will be encouraged to look beyond everyday items to discover interesting textures and light patterns. What happens when we look at something from a new perspective? Day two will start with a review of what we have learned so far before heading out again on a scavenger hunt. After three days of shooting it will be time to edit our assignment down to our best images and select those that will be printed. Day three will include a critique. This is a chance for everyone to show off their best images and for the campers to discuss them. Also we will talk about what everyone has learned. The photos will then be displayed at an art show at the studio later in the summer (included in cost). Each session limited to 12 campers. Students must bring their own digital cameras with clean memory cards, and extra charged batteries. Masks required. Bring your own water. Instructor: Annette Barr Starting Location: 215 W. Main Street Instructor: Annette Barr Art Show for all 3 camps - July 21 and will be on display in the study front window for a couple of weeks to allow campers, parents and guests to view safely from outside.
