Abstract photography

In an abstract photo, it is the lines, textures, colors that constitute the subject of the photo. A good abstract photo is not just anything, nor the result of chance or an error.

Abstract photography

When the photo becomes a painting. In an abstract photo, it is the lines, textures, colors that constitute the subject of the photo. A good abstract photo is not just anything, nor the result of chance or an error. This type of photo needs to be organized. It must obey the same rules of composition as a landscape. In this workshop we will see different principles of composition because a single rule is not suitable for all types of photos.


Workshop goals

Exercise your creativity to make abstract photographs that can rival paintings.


Recommended photo equipment

In the case of interchangeable lens cameras, any lens will do. A tripod may be useful if it rains on the day of the workshop.
