Introduction to Urban Landscape Photography
2017-05-11 19:00 - 21:00 UTC | Abbey Row Community Centre, The Knowes,, Kelso, Roxburghshire, TD5 7BJ, United Kingdom
Urban landscape photography describes a town or city rather than simply being a big view of the town or city. Your image should attempt to understand your experience of the town or city. It should concentrate on structures or processes rather than on people. Urban landscape is distinct from ‘street photography’, which looks at urban experience largely through a study of the people who live it. Urban landscape photographs often include people, but they are clearly situated in the structures of the town or city.
