This past Saturday I took a workshop: 3C’s – Keys to Better Photography with Frank Juarez. The 3C’s being composition, color and critique.
Had it not been for this workshop I’d likely have missed:
The colorful knit bands on the street lamp above which still has me wondering what they are there for…or…
the 1894 sign at the top of this building with a colorful McDonald’s sign on the left and how I loved the fact this building is over 120 years ago and that back then there was no such thing as a McDonalds…or…
this “sales” sign doing all it can to entice people to the back of the alley for great deals despite the competition of the DO NOT ENTER sign above it.
All of this I’d likely not have seen if not for learning to look through the lens of a camera in a new and different way.
And the moments I gave pause to what everything meant or was trying to convey.
And how I took pictures of things I never would have otherwise…
which opened my world in a whole new way.
It was the fastest two hours I’ve ever spent…
and now I can’t wait to shoot some more!
There are so many ways to live a creative life…if we just take the time to explore.
