Sunday 3 December 2023
1:00pm-2:30pm

Meet at Madeline's Cafe, Jells Park

This photowalk will draw on ideas around right- and left-brain thinking. We will learn a couple of 'tricks' to suppress our dominant conscious assumptions of what we see and how they can apply to significantly improve how we look and observe what we are photographing. We will also use our cameras and our perceptions to consider the questions 'Who am I?' and 'What do I want?'.

BYO camera

$7.50/$10 Bookings essential
