Mark Parker
People, cafes, vendors, street merchants, buskers, historic buildings, art installations and much more. The power of observation underpins the art of great street photography. Learning to "see" interesting detail is a practised skill and we introduce you to easy methods that will open your photographer's eye and expose you to a world that is alive with detail. The most rewarding part of the class is learning how to approach interesting people and have them willingly pose for you.We will also go over settings, focusing techniques and lens choices common to street photography to help us capture those random chance encounters.

The usual subjects include flowers and small insects, which we don't normally get to see up close with the naked eye.The class will start when the insects are more active. So be ready to explore and capture breathe-taking macro images.

    The Kingfisher perch is often visited by Grey Wagtails but this is the first visit from a Kestrel. He/she stayed for 20 minutes allowing lots of photos at a slower shutter speed before setting to 1/2000 second for a sequence of departure shots.

    Title or Location: Kingfisher on the River Lea
    Canon EOS R7 400mm f/5.6 1/2000 sec ISO 6400.Kingfishers use regular perches and will dive for small fish and other food in the water before returning to the perch. They may sit for some time before diving. Flight time to the water and back is about two seconds, so to capture anything within that window is a challenge.

    I was looking for Whimbrels, or other migratory shore birds when I spotted this common tern flying around. At some point it dove and caught a fish. I instinctively aimed my camera and took a few pictures before flying away.

    Steam was really enshrouding the main pool of Grand Prismatic, so I looked for other compelling ways to capture images. This image features some of the sinter terraces and cooler water thermophiles thriving around the central pool perimeter.

    This is at the end of a 3.5 mile hike, with no trail, after you have a limited availability permit. Took me 5 years to get it. It is better to be there late morning to mid afternoon so the formation is fully illuminated.
