This course is for anyone who loves to travel, learn about new places, and is interested in improving their photography skills, з дапамогай любой лічбавай камеры або смартфона, so that you can take exceptional pictures when you travel. During this 4-day hands-on class, you will learn basic photography skills and get to experience the culture and history of the Big Apple.
We will explore the concept of exposure, color balance, and composition. We will also look into shooting macro (close up) photography, landscape, and still photography. Basic editing and retouching techniques will be discussed, which will help you complete your post-assignments.
Some of the places we will visit include the famous Brooklyn Bridge and DUMBO. Brooklyn Bridge is one of the most photographed landmarks in NYC. You will learn the history of the bridge and everything you need to know about it, from the early days of construction to its cultural significance today. You’ll also get perfect views of the Manhattan skyline as you cross. Once we’ve crossed the bridge, we will head to the trendy Brooklyn neighborhood called DUMBO. This place is known for its high-end boutiques, delicious desserts, pizza shops, art galleries, and scenic waterfront views. Its most famous view is the vision of the Manhattan Bridge wedged perfectly between two brick buildings.
We will also visit the 9/11 Memorial and the Oculus. The 9/11 Memorial was established to honor the nearly 3,000 victims of the 9/11 attacks and all those who risked their lives to save others. We will head to the Memorial’s twin reflecting pools that sit in the footprint of where the Twin Towers once stood. These pools are each nearly an acre in size and feature the largest manmade waterfalls in North America. The names of every person who died in the 2001 and 1993 attacks are inscribed into the bronze panels edging the pools. Adjacent to the 9/11 Memorial is the World Trade Center Transportation Hub’s centerpiece, the Oculus, a spiny, bleach-white structure, which was designed to evoke the image of a dove taking flight from the hands of a child.
We will take the ferry to Liberty Island and Ellis Island, where you will learn the history of these two places. “The Statue of Liberty” was a gift of friendship from the people of France to the United States in 1886, and is recognized as a universal symbol of freedom and democracy. At Ellis Island, you will get to tour The National Immigration Museum. It is the destination that welcomed more than 12 million immigrants to our shores. Ellis Island is now a poetic symbol of the American Dream.
Of course, let’s not forget about Таймс-сквер, once of the world’s busiest pedestrian areas and hub of the Broadway Theater District. Times Square is one of the world’s most visited tourist attractions, drawing an estimated 50 million visitors annually. Brightly lit by numerous billboards and advertisements, it stretches from West 42nd to West 47th Streets, and is sometimes referred to as “the Crossroads of the World”, “the Center of the Universe”, and “the heart of the world”.
You will also visit 3 other boroughs including Queens, the Bronx and Brooklyn – because NYC is not only about Manhattan!
