Two days of Photography and Photoshop fun. Chasing around Charlotte City Center, catching the light, taking and making some great Black and Whites. I had a great group of students and could not have been happier with how the weekend went.
Day One of my Black and White Fine Art Creative Workshop in Charlotte has drawn to a close. What a fun day! We were spoiled with perfect weather, great light and I have a fabulous group to work with. We have had some adventures along the way, including being threatened with Police intervention for snapping pics at the top of a high-rise car park – which was open to the public, but only for parking cars apparently, NOT for taking pics of architecture – as that constitutes a threat to national security, apparently (ugh!). Been yelled at for taking pictures on the train tracks – OK a tad risky, but we were watching out for trains! Much photoshoppery and boggled minds at all the ways you can create a Black and White image ….. and a tasty dinner for the group to boot! Small hiccup in that racing to catch a lift I have snapped a muscle in my right calf and walking is now a bit of a grimace faced chore – but other than that, I could not be happier with our day – and a big thanks to DH for being a great Marshall and shepherding us around in a timely fashion and curing the odd glitch, like leaving my laptop charger at home 🙂 Looking forward to seeing what Mono Magic we can cook up tomorrow. It looks and sounds delightful. The adventures you get up to! Never thought about how one might take all that photo taking, the world has changed that’s for sure. These B&W are perfection, love the patterns you captured, shadow and light, just wonderful I just knew you would have fun. OXOX M A great day it was!! Many thanks for the “walkabout”, the PS lessons, the food and the hospitality ~ and thank your DH, too 🙂 “The physical language of the body is so much more powerful than words.”
