OPENING RECEPTION Wednesday 3-5 PM | $15 Guy Harvey Resort Creating Impact in Your Photography Take Your Images from Good to Great! by Joe Brady sponsored by What makes a great photograph? Of course, that adjective is sometimes subjective based on the viewers experiences and passions, but having an image with simplicity, a clear subject, balanced composition and storytelling draws the viewer into the photograph. When the viewer is drawn in and lingers, the full impact of the scene unfolds, and you understand what the photographer means to share. It’s the photographer’s mission to capture and present beauty and story to share their feelings of the place and subject. When the viewer becomes immersed in the scene, that’s a great photograph. Join Photographer Joe Brady as he shares his approach to creating images that draw you in and how to answer the challenges of light, composition and the limitations of our cameras.
