10×8 Photo-walk – Surry Hills
Do you even shoot in manual? You will after this workshop and walk.
Overview
'Do you even shoot in manual?'
It's a barbed query aimed at a generation of iPhone-wielding Instagrammers and DSLR-brandishing Canon kids. Its cry has echoed across the walls of empty darkrooms, across the pictorial kingdoms and queendoms of Tumblr and lands right in the heart of our confused artistic identity. For this rhetorical accusation stems from a deeper concern: If everyone is a photographer, is anyone really a photographer?
Yes, we went there. These are the hard-hitting cultural questions we posit here at the internet's hardest-hitting cultural magazine. But, rather than ponder this any further, we thought it would be much easier to point you to 10x8's new photo-walk program, which begins next week in Surry Hills.
Led by master street photographer Marco Bok, the monthly photo-walks will be a brilliant opportunity to connect with other budding shutterbugs, explore Sydney's various visually rich suburbs, learn street paparazzo etiquette and sharpen your photographic skills (including how to shoot in various light conditions... in manual!).
The first photo-walks will begin at 10x8 itself, where Marco Bok will share some basic tips before letting you loose on the general public. The walks are all about building the growing 10x8 community so much so that the crew has already planned to grab drinks at Shakespeare's afterwards. And you're welcome to join. Isn't that nice?
So stop feeling ashamed of your nice camera. Get along to a 10x8 photo-walk.
