Strong photography depends on strategic compositional choices that draw the viewer's eye in and hold it on the subject.

If you're ready to strengthen your composition skills, join Kim Kelly for a guided walkabout through the historic and scenic US Naval Academy. Kim will lead you around the grounds — including a few lesser-known spots on campus — as you explore elements of composition such as leading lines, negative space, layering, and vanishing points.
Each participant will receive a digital booklet featuring examples of the compositional styles used to create impactful images, including:

• Framing
• Curved Lines
• Layering
• Low Angle
• Shadows
• Colors
• Texture
• Depth of Field
• Abstracts
• Silhouette
• Five Senses

As we move through campus, we'll seek out real-world examples of these elements, training your eye to spot them wherever you go. Challenge yourself to see how many different techniques you can find and photograph along the way.

Please note: Before signing up, review this link to the US Naval Academy's visitor requirements and make sure you have the required documentation.

Recommended Gear – A DSLR or Mirrorless camera with lenses ranging from 24-200mm.

The Photo Composition Elements booklet (in a pdf format) will be sent to you with the reminder letter a few days prior to the class.
