And of course our instructors will be there to help you with photography. This event will be free - we hope to meet many of you there.

Apr photo challenge: Primary Colors
Winner: Cedric Favero
This month's challenge was a feast for our eyes - with so many amazing uses of primary colors & brightening up our screens. Great photo by Cedric - his photo of the stairs at Parking de L'étoile does not only such a dominant use of Yellow, but also a textbook application of the "golden ratio". Well done!
The theme of May is " Power of a Smile" - for this assignment, we want to feel the smile. More info at our Facebook Group where you can vote existing submissions and submit your own photos.
Good Luck! |
