Photo Opportunities
St Petersburg, Florida is a fast-growing city with a bustling downtown. You will have the opportunity to photograph various subjects including people, street scenes, architecture, an open-air market, boats, docks, etc.
You will be able to practice many photographic techniques working with changing light conditions, close-ups, composition, reflections, shadows, and graphic images.
Technical Information
Bring the following (if you have it and think it will be of value for you to create artistic images):
- Telephoto lens for situations when you cannot get close to the subject
- Polarizing filter to reduce glare in reflections or help you peer through reflective surfaces (e.g., water)
