This event is over. Thanks to all who came!


YWS will be hosting its first ever photography workshop!

Hosted by Cadi and myself (Blues), we will be covering composition - something that can make an average photo interesting and help you take better photographs.

Who can come?

Anyone! Whether you have a smartphone, a point and shoot or a DSLR, everyone is welcome. The composition of your photographs has nothing to do with the camera that you have. If you've never tried it or do it for fun or you've been doing it for years, everyone's welcome!

Try to make sure you have a camera handy so that you can take photos (and then upload it) for the photo session whether it's a smartphone or a point and shoot or even a DSLR. But if you can't get hold of one in time, then that's fine. (P.S. It doesn't matter if you don't have an interesting subject nearby.)

Saturday 23rd February, 8 pm GMT

Wish I could.. Ppad isn't iPad friendly, though *sighs* but I'll be taking some pictures, and think of you as I do xD

I shall try to attend.

Thinking on it, I don't think I've actually submitted any of my photography to YWS. Hmmm. I tend to post things on dA rather than here when it's artwork/photography unless I specifically recall to. -tilts head-

Nonetheless, a photography workshop sounds fun. :D
My SPD senses are tingling.

Possibly.
