Street Photography

Saturday 26 April

Crossroads Neighborhood - 9:30am - 2 Hours

Kansas City Photography Group

Darrin Dressler

People, cafes, vendors, street merchants, buskers, historic buildings, art installations and much more. The power of observation underpins the art of great street photography. Learning to "see" interesting detail is a practised skill and we introduce you to easy methods that will open your photographer's eye and expose you to a world that is alive with detail. The most rewarding part of the class is learning how to approach interesting people and have them willingly pose for you.

We will also go over settings, focusing techniques and lens choices common to street photography to help us capture those random chance encounters.

Title or Location: Waiting for Sailors
This was from photos I took while cruising slowly around the harbor on a misty/hazy day in Southwest Harbor last year. I loved the boats lining up so nicely, the muted tones due to the filtered sunlight, the gentle movement of the water.

Title or Location: Trauma
36?x40? Acrylic on stretched canvas.?Trauma? is a self portrait reflecting the emotional turmoil of Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD). I am a 58 year old artist from Portland, Oregon and was diagnosed with CPTSD in 2020. Looking back I am a textbook case, I was raised in a home with a very violent mother and a father who chose to remain blissfully unaware. The violence included being held by my ankles and hung over a gravel driveway from a 2nd floor porch, to beatings on
