Urban Photography

Ready to take your smartphone photography to the next level? Then look no further than this picturesque great western walk. You’ll learn the fundamentals of photography, such as composition, focus, exposure, creative techniques, working with natural light, post-production, and much more. You’ll discover not only how to perfectly capture what you see, but more importantly, how to creatively interpret your subject. All you need is a fully charged phone, an Instagram account, and a desire to learn. George Poulakis is a multi-award-winning fine-art photographer whose work has been exhibited nationally. His extensive commercial photography experience complements his art practice, allowing him to approach his work with technique and creativity.
Today’s walk is also a bit unique for TSA, because we have an urban location for this hike. Don’t worry though, as we have selected some of the best bushland areas to ensure you get that forest feel as well as fantastic opportunities to improve your photography skills. Make this the day where you get outside, enjoy the elements, take some awesome photos and do something unique.
