Photographing New York from the Waterfront

Overview

Go on location to photograph scenes of vibrant city from the water!  Capture sparkling water, atmospheric skies and soaring skyscrapers while refining your photo taking skills.  With the growth of the New York Ferry service, we now have a chance to photograph and explore some less familiar neighborhoods from new perspectives, including from the water itself, and the ferries get us angles and shots we couldn?t get any other way. The ferry service now stretches all the way from the Rockaways to Astoria and Whitestone, with some great locations in between.  Each week we will select a different destination, visually explore the route as seen from the water and also the destination area from the land side. Each week, the students will share their images with each other via Dropbox, Google Drive or other, and there will be time set aside in each class to critique the shoot from the previous week. First session will be a 1 hour virtual orientation via Zoom to discuss meeting locations and equipment. The subsequent meetings will take place on location.
