Photography in the Japanese Garden: The Zen of Bokeh
Registration for this workshop is closed.
The term bokeh comes from the Japanese and refers to the aesthetic quality of the blur created in out-of-focus parts of a photograph. Join professional photographer and educator, Edgar Miller, as you learn to include this technique into your photographic repertoire, all amidst the composed beauty of the Japanese Garden. Emphasis will be placed on recognizing the elements that make a strong photograph, such as selective framing, focus, and exposure. You will take away connections with fellow-photographers and your own “zen of bokeh” to be used in all your images.
Instructor: Edgar Miller is a commercial and fine art photographer and educator, having earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. He has taught photography and art for the last 20 years and is always looking for new ways to help his clients learn. His work has been shown and awarded in several Texas and national exhibitions, and he is a member of the Texas Photographic Society and the Texas Artists Coalition. Influenced by his late father and his college photography professor, Edgar continues to find interesting light on interesting subjects.
