A gentle 40-minute online session to support rest, awareness, and reconnection through breath and simple embodied practice. **I’m offering two free online Reconnect sessions in April and May, with optional donations, to continue sharing this practice during a busy performance period. Please register your place [HERE](https://reconnect202604.eventbrite.co.uk).** ### 🌸 What to Expect Each session includes a short check-in, followed by guided abdominal breathing, grounding exercises, and simple mindful movement, with space to gently return to yourself. We’ll close with a brief check-out. The previous in-person sessions have been heartwarming, thoughtful, and powerful, and the feedback from the session in March makes me feel it's important to keep opening up a space, however small. Where we can slow down and listen inward. This is a quiet, supportive space. You don’t need any experience, just a willingness to pause and be with yourself for a moment. #### *What to prepare:* A quiet space, comfortable clothing, and the option to sit or lie down. A bottle of water and a space where you can move your arms freely.**

***👑 In a world filled with hate, the King of Pop still dared to hope, to inspire, and to make a difference*** 🕺🏾 **👋 Hello everyone!** Let’s hear it for the King of Pop in this upcoming musical biographical drama directed by Antoine Fuqua and written by John Logan. The film will follow the life of **Michael Jackson**, with his nephew **Jaafar Jackson** taking on the lead role. Early footage has already drawn attention thanks to his striking resemblance and his natural ability to capture Michael’s iconic stage presence and dance moves. The story is expected to offer a broad and balanced look at Jackson’s life, following his journey from the **Jackson 5** to becoming one of the most famous entertainers in the world, while also touching on the more difficult and complex parts of his story. **The Plan:** is to start out at **Victory House Wine Bar**, chatting about all these sweet, musicality flicks. We’ll probably start with some **predictions of the film** before heading over to **Cineworld IMAX** (look for us in row **E**). After the film, we’ll regroup for the commentary and **[Letterboxd](https://letterboxd.com/movieroadhouse/)**[ ](https://letterboxd.com/movieroadhouse/)Review.

**Enhance Your Compositions With Fine Art Photography** This is a fine art street photography workshop, covering enhancing composition skills, visualising a scene before it happens and being more creative as a photographer. We will use architecture, interiors, light, lines, frames or shapes as your urban canvas to compose people in a creative way. The objective: Don’t look for people, look for scenes first! Then wait for the 'right' person to make that scene complete. This street photography technique is called 'fishing'. The focus of this session is learning how to see and build strong compositions using what’s already there rather rather than trying to 'hunt' interesting characters and candid one off moments. We will do silhouetting, leading lines, sub framing, reflections and much more, and how to use the best available light. I'll give you composition tips before and throughout the session, along with visual challenges as you shoot. We will have some stop off points where I show photos taken at that scene on my iPad for inspiration. This is where I will share my approach and my vision on how I work a scene. This is a slower, more relaxed way of working — you’re not rushing to catch a candid moment or worrying about being seen by your target subjects, but learning how to recognise when a scene already has potential and how to refine it through framing, positioning, timing and patience. Instead of focusing on individuals, the emphasis is on building strong framed scenes and allowing people to naturally become part of the composition. We will explore areas around the Square Mile (City of London), including Liverpool Street, Moorgate, Bank, St. Paul’s. \*\* **What You Will Learn** * **Seeing Strong Compositions:** Learn how to identify balanced scenes, leading lines, layers, and natural frames in the street. * **Framing a Subject:** Understand how to place people within the environment to create stronger visual impact. * **Using the Environment:** Work with backgrounds, architecture, and street elements to structure your images. * **Simplifying a Scene:** Learn how to remove distractions and focus on what matters in the frame. * **Patience in Practice:** Learn how to wait for elements to align within a composition. *** **What to Bring** * **Camera Kit:** Any camera can be used for the workshop (DSLR, mirrorless, film and phone). Best lens is wide like a 23mm, 35mm prime sensor, or a zoom like a 18-55mm (crop sensor), 23mm- 70mm f (full frame). No tripod is needed. **Quick tip:** Set your camera to black & white (B&W) / monochrome LCD preview if you know how. Helpful, not essential. *** **Event Info** * **Duration:** 3 hours * **Group Size:** Max 5 * **Meeting Location:** Liverpool Street, exact spot provided after booking *** **PAYMENT OPTIONS** * RSVP via Meetup (standard fee applies) * Or send £25 via PayPal to **street@lindawisdomphotography.com** — no extra fee * Message me to confirm your spot & I will add you to attendee list. \*\*\* **Bonus for Members** * **FREE DOWNLOAD – Master Composition & Framing: Beginner Tip Sheet:** Covering the key topics from this session. * **FACEBOOK COMMUNITY GROUP:** Private group for Meetup members to showcase their work, receive critique, advice, and tips.

"The SOB is a ballet dancer. He’s the best ballet dancer that ever lived, and if I get a good chance I’ll kill him with my bare hands." - W.C. Fields In *City Lights*, Chaplin's Little Tramp meets a blind girl selling flowers who mistakes him for a wealthy man. When he learns that an operation may restore her sight, he sets off to earn the money she needs to have the surgery. He also befriends an alcoholic millionaire who only recognizes him when he is drunk. When the blind girl and her grandmother fall behind in the rent and face eviction, he tries working and even enters a boxing competition to raise the money they need. Regarded as Chaplin's masterpiece, *City Lights* has been ranked on more than seventeen "100 greatest movies of all time" lists. Orson Welles cited it as his favorite picture. *City Lights* is available for streaming on Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBOMax, Tubi and PlutoTV. The Columbus Library lists three copies on blu-ray and eight copies on DVD. Watch the movie on your own, then join us upstairs at East Market to discuss the film. If you want more, *Unknown Chaplin* is a three-episode lost-footage documentary available on Youtube. It covers his time on *City Lights* beginning at the twenty-six minute mark of episode two: https://youtu.be/f8960Uc15hI?t=1558

Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, April 22 at Streetlight Guild. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. **SCHEDULE:** 6:45ish - Quick introductions 7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 8:00 - The End **OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. **BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you! **OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:** * **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space! * **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels. * **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay! * **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.
