CAPE CLEAR EYES

An exploratory photography workshop with William Bock

28 & 29.08.21 13.00 - 17.00

Join me, William Bock, for a two day creative and practical photography workshop on Cape Clear island. We’ll learn about the history of photography, familiarise ourselves with the basics of using a digital camera, explore taking photographs outdoors and start to develop a critical eye for images we take.

As an artist I use photography as a tool to tell stories about people and the environments we live in. The workshop will be less focused on technical perfection and more about building your confidence using a camera outdoors and developing a playful approach to digital photographic image making.

Places Limited - Camera Equipment will be provided by Comharchumann Chléire
