Understanding Metering

Understanding Metering

Sunday 26 January
N 6th St, Harrisburg - 10am - 2 Hours
Harrisburg Photography Group
Robert Bonsall
Metering is an incredibly important aspect of photography to grasp. You might have heard about the exposure triangle but I believe we should be talking about an exposure square with metering being the forth side as it is equally as important to getting the correct exposure as your aperture, ISO and shutter speed.
We will explore how and when to use each of the metering options and how to use it to get some creative lighting in your shots.

Backlighting, Bokeh and Bursts

Backlighting, Bokeh and Bursts

Sunday 23 February
N Fort Street - 1pm - 2 Hours
Harrisburg Photography Group
Robert Bonsall
We will be using various techniques to maximise the behaviour of the light. Backlighting is one of my favourites and can be used for portraiture or nature. Bokeh is Japanese for blur but is a term used for soft out of focus balls of light which can look very pleasing. Burst in this case is star burst which can be achieved when you have strong areas of light and a correct choice of aperture. Use all three to create some amazing compositions.

Title or Location: Full Moon over Main St.
This is a plein air (painted on location) done at Main Street Mechanicsburg, December 15th in a 3 hour period. I frequently practice open air painting on the sidewalk because I have a gallery here, 17 W. Main Street. This kind of painting is a response to the scene. Here the moon was bright, the decorations were up and the lights of the town and cars created a seasonal harmony. That is what I responded to.

Cody was a much loved rescue and brought joy to his family. I felt using soft pastels was the best medium to use and managed to convey his character, which the client loved.
