Come and join us as we explore composition in photography.

Composition is one of the most critical element in photography. Composition is how a photographer arranges the visual elements within their image, frame. I promise you that if you search for information on composition you will find plenty You will find formal rules, opinion, some of which you can trace back to historical art movements and painters.

Even in the digital world, composition remains the key to creating strong images. Composition is what guides our eye through an image and gives importance to the subject. It creates the story for the viewer and how we as photographers convey that message.

This meetup will explore composition using our frame and tools available to us as the photographer.

To navigate this challenging period, he turned to photography, a medium that swiftly evolved from a hobby into a profound obsession. This new creative direction led him to pursue an MFA in Photography from the Savannah College of Art and Design, which he completed in 2019.

    This photo was taken during a bucket list trip to drive the White Rim Road in Canyonlands National Park. All the research I did stated the absolute best place to camp was at the White Crack camp site. This turned out to be true. Though there were no clouds to for the sunset I had hoped for, the colors of the sun setting over the red rock were amazing. To stand at the edge of the cliff and overlooking the beauty of the Monument Basin leaves one in awe of the power of nature and how small our

    Thank you for considering my photo for Photo of the Week! I have a number of bottle brush trees in my back yard, and birds love the blossoms when they bloom in the Spring. I usually see numerous hummingbirds and sparrows, but I saw this gorgeous bird one afternoon resting in the branches. I was able to get a couple of shots off before it flew away.

    This blossom was on a small Magnolia tree sheltered from the wind and weather on Bald Head Island. When I spied this blossom the sun light was beginning to illuminate the petals. Time time spent waiting for the pictorial moment gave me time to more deeply appreciate the beauty of this transient blossom. Taken with a Nikon D850, tripod, 70-200 in close distance. Single image-no stacking.
