Street Photography Meetup

Street Photography Meetup

Sunday 25 May
Argyle St, Glasgow G3 8AG - 10am - 2 Hours
Glasgow Photography Group
Hassan Nezamian
A list of the most influential street photographers of the past century."The essential attribute of street photography is chance - and that's likely why we're so drawn to it. Unlike documentary photographers, who wish to tell an overarching story of the subjects and places they capture, often for news publications, street photographers take photographs of fleeting moments that may exist outside of a greater narrative. Often, they are only meaningful for the single moment they capture.The street photographers of the world might envy photographers who take portraits or stage photo shoots. The latter group gets to control and create an image before taking it, which seems a hell of a lot easier than being able to get the perfect moment on camera as it occurs spontaneously. The street photographer has to wait for just the right moment to capture something worth shooting.The whole point of street photography is to capture happenstance - unplanned moments in public space. Often this involves humans sometimes doing funny things, like tripping or making strange expressions, but sometimes street photography just captures the photographer's surroundings. Although it can be similar to architectural photography, it doesn't have to focus on the structures in front of a lens. Instead, the focus of a street photograph is the composition of random objects coming together in a photographer's frame. The talented street photographer captures these chance happenings in a meaningful and engaging way. "

Title or Location: On my dining room table
I painted this to commemorate an amazing mentor. - my college philosophy professor. This is actually Nietzsche, someone he deeply admired. Since I admired my professor, it seemed fitting to paint this in his memory. He passed away after I graduated, but his impact on my college education stayed with me forever.

I visited Jurien Bay last year in spring.Almost 50 km South east of the bay is the Badgingarra National Park where there were beautiful wild pink Everlasting flowers but it was this the tree that caught my eye. It looked so majestic amongst them.

Title or Location: I did not take the photo. I believe it is a stock photo. I painted this painting as a study painting hair/fur and grass/sky.
I am meeting with a group of artists using watercolor over zoom. They are mostly in VA, but the leader/teacher is in Midland now. We are taking on a project to paint an EPIC painting larger than we are accustomed to in order to stretch ourselves. We decided on the animal/ outdoor ranch/farm theme. I am very new to watercolor so I welcomed the challenge. Since then I had the nerve to paint my cat and dog. It is an enjoyable experience. I'm on to painting a horse now.
