Creative Abstract Photography

How do you define Abstract Photography?
What is Visual Communication?
How do we “read” abstract images?

In this 90-minute video, I will share what I love about abstract aerial photography and identify some of the most important elements for this genre. I'll also share the camera settings I use when I fly, and how I plan my aerial shoots. We'll then dive into a section on a selection of more affordable Abstract photography genres, and I'll outline tools, techniques and simple practical "how-to" guides for some of my favourites - oil & water, milk & food dye, abstract smoke, motion blur, urban abstracts and nature abstracts - so that you can easily do these at home. You'll also receive a summary document, and you will have access to the video for two weeks.
