About this Event
Hi all,
Join us for an 3-hour workshop focused on black and white abstract architectural photography.
Our exploration will take place at the Tate Modern and its surrounding area. Through hands-on assignments and guidance, you’ll learn essential techniques to transform urban structures into works of art. Explore composition, subject selection, and camera techniques suitable for both traditional cameras and smartphones.
