John Hawke led a discussion on Landscape Photography with an emphasis on composing the picture by analysing what was the focus of one's attention that made one want to take a picture in the first place. He also pointed out that one had time to compose the shot and encouraged those present to take a minute to determine the focal point one wanted to highlight. He then suggested that, by moving around, (from side to side as well as forwards and backwards) capture the 'best shot' by including objects that led the eye to that focal point. During a lively discussion, various techniques were described including optimal aperture/speed settings, focus stacking and multiple exposure blending. (to 'remove' moving people from the scene)
Theme for next meeting is ‘Autumn’ - the above discussion is relevant for this topic! Future themes are on the Group’s web site.
