Landscape and Architectural Photography Workshops

Manchester Architecture and Abstracts Sun 11th July 2021

Manchester is a great city to photograph. The workshop begins at 13.00 and runs until sunset (21.30). It starts by photographing some of the wonderful inner city architecture focusing on a more abstract interpretation of these structures. This includes Beetham Tower (Hilton Hotel), the commercial district of Manchester at Spinningfields, First Street, the University buildings on  Wilmott Street and the Chips building at Ancoates. We will then head to Salford Quays for the late afternoon and dusk to be on location for when the lights illuminate the architecture, adding another dimension to this great location. This will include Media City, the Imperial War Museum North which lends itself to some wonderful long exposure photography with the clouds sweeping past the shard at the top of the building. We will be looking for abstract angles, careful framing, strong colours, leading lines and use filters to extend the exposure, balance the sky with the foreground and use polarizers to cut down on surface reflections and saturate the colours. We then move to the Lowry theatre with it’s exciting geometry and metallic textures reflecting the evening light.

There really is no better way to develop your craft than by ‘getting out there and doing it’. I will provide you with a friendly, fun and informative workshop experience that will, I am sure, leave you with some memorable images to add to your portfolio.
