Exploring the art of Photography: A look at my learning outcome from a Workshop.

 

Introduction to the topic of exploring art of Photography

I attended a photography workshop. Photography is a way of capturing in a time and preserve them. It is a form of art that has been around for centuries, yet, despite its long history, it has evolved over time and continues to captivate new and experienced photographers alike.

Recently, I had the privilege of attending a photography workshop in my University(MKBU) organized by our Department of english.that provided me with an inside look into this amazing art form. The workshop gave me a unique opportunity to explore the different styles of photography, from portrait to landscape, as well as learn various techniques for enhancing my photos. In this section, I will discuss some of my key learning outcomes from this wonderful experience.

Overview of the structure and purpose of the workshop

I recently attended a workshop to explore the art of photography, and I wanted to write about my learning outcomes from the experience. The structure and purpose of this particular workshop were designed to guide each participant through a creative process. We started off by discussing the meaning of photography. In this workshop we invited the wildlife photographer and film maker Kaushik Ghelani. According to him main thing of the photography is story. He discussed about the some important rules of photography like,

• Aesthetics of photography 

       According to him the if you want to be a photographer than you have to learn how to see with different perspective from others.

                     

• Rule of 3rd

                   This rule works in photography for grid.for a perfect photo divide your greed in 1:3 proposition.

• Golden point

        According to this rule you only focus on the subject.

• Centre focus rule

         This rule is mostly used in archeology. Emphasize subject in centre if you get to see such subjects.

        

• Symmetry 

           According to this rule subject divide in two parts like mirror and reflects its symmetrical beauty.

 

• Geometrical shapes 

        When you fill your frame with any geometrical shapes that time you use this rule.

• Leading lines

         Leading line leads us towards the subject in frame.

• Head leading room

            Compose the frame with breathing space in direction where subject is looking.

• Depth of field

          Compose your frame using depth of field.

• Break the rule

            According to kaushik sir that no one is perfect photographer. Its not necessary to use this rules some times you can break the rules and you can click some photographs out of the box.

 The photographs which i used above as examples are clicked by kaushik sir himself. So click here for visit his Instagram page.

    After discussing the rules of photography they gave us a task of clicking five photographs of whatever you like in the University campus.

So we parted ways and started working on given task. Taking photographs is not easy as we think when the photographs which are taken by you is going to reviewed by a professional photographer. But still we participate in the task and clicked some photographs using our phones. So here's the photographs which i took during the task.

This photographs are the proof that how the nature works in the Earth. That every aspect of the mother Earth is dependent on each other. Nature is full of life if we inspect it with our naked eyes. As you can see in the last photograph that how a withered tree is the house of so many little insects like termites.

     

Lastly, we concluded with a review session in which everyone presented their final projects.

Summary of what i have learned from experience with this work shop

After attending the photography workshop, I realized that I had so much more to learn about the art of photography. Though I was familiar with some basic concepts, the workshop allowed me to expand my knowledge in many ways. From learning how to properly set up a shot and use camera settings, to developing creative approaches to capturing an image, I am now confident in my ability to take great photos. I learned that composition is key in creating beautiful photographs; by carefully considering elements like lighting, color, contrast, and depth of field, I can create eye-catching images with a lot of impact.

The reason behind organising this Photography workshop was that the students can see the nature with different perspective than the normal people. After attending this workshop i realised that photography is not just a fun activity to do when you are feeling bored or you see something which you want to capture in your camera but it's a form of art which describes the lots of stories.

Conclusion

After attending this workshop my perspective towards the photography has changed. Kaushik sir also told us that you can also get paid by clicking photographs. Photography is not just a hobby but it can also help you financially. According to him that no one is perfect photographer. He also suggested us to create a photography group. In that group some students who are interested in photography they can join the group and send the photos they had clicked. And he also suggested to criticize each others photography so next time we can take better photos than past. 

Lastly, some students gave the feedback on this Photography workshop. And this is how i enjoyed this Photography workshop.

Thank you
