THE ARTISTIC 'CHALLENGE' may include:
- practicing a specific principle of composition;
- making use of intentional camera movement or covering an old filter with petroleum jelly (vaseline) to produce impressionist images;
- focussing on the details;
- being mindful of the presence of words in the city and including them in your images;
- looking for correspondence between a short poem or text and the images you are making;
- and many more...
Some of our photo walks:
- A night walk in Alfama;
- a Tale of Two Gardens (Jardim da Estrela, Tapada das Necessidades);
