Night cinematic photography is the art of transforming darkness into drama. It’s where the ordinary becomes extraordinary and every frame tells a story bathed in moonlight, neon glow, or the subtle flicker of street lamps. Unlike daytime photography, night shoots demand a heightened sensitivity to mood, contrast, and atmosphere-making it a playground for visual storytellers. This workshop is designed to help you see cinematic style photography. We will focus on street life in London using ambient light to capture cinematic style images. Using a 50mm prime (or 35mm prime) we'll be working without a tripod, hand holding at night. This workshop is aimed at people with: * All abilities * Any camera * Support will be given with camera settings RECOMMENDED KIT * Any lens will work but a 35mm or 50mm F1.8 is recommended * No tripod is needed OTHER ESSENTIALS * Check the weather and wear appropriate clothing/shoes * A fun and experimental attitude! TRAVEL * As usual check the TFL website for any issues that may delay your journey CONTACT * Alex 07956 264049 UPCOMING EVENTS https://www.meetup.com/londonphotographic/events/calendar

Bringing a new meaning to 'Everything but the kitchen sink,' this bar even has that. Its DJ plays from a built-in Kitchen Disco. Spinning disks that span decades with a playlist that's sure to keep you on the dancefloor until the early hours. Blaring neons, skull disco balls and waltzer-style booths all add to the charm!

Wouldn’t it be nice to find a way to overcome your feelings of anger so that you not only control them, but you no longer have the urge to lose your temper in the first place? And how about being able to shake off resentments, persistent annoyance, or even feelings of vengeance? We’d like to invite you to an event on how to overcome anger and resentment. We will show you why people have trouble controlling their temper and where resentment comes from. Flaring anger can ruin a meeting, a relationship, an opportunity, or just about any aspect of life. Worst of all, outbursts towards our family can create hurt that lingers throughout a lifetime. You want to have a civil conversation, and you’ve vowed that you wouldn’t lose your temper, but a few minutes later, the anger flares up. Maybe you’ve realized that being angry doesn’t get you what you want so you internalize it. Or maybe you avoid the knockdown, drag-out fights, but stewing in resentment is exhausting and takes an emotional toll. In this event we show you how to get to the root of your anger so that it stops being an issue to you. You’ll also learn why people harbor resentments and how to move on. Don't continue to struggle, make a difference in your life, and join us for this local event. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This Meetup is sponsored by your local Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center.
