ONE OF A KIND PHOTOWALK EVENT TO DOWNTOWN MIAMI…
PHOTOSHOOT DOCUMENTING THE CONSTRUCTION OF MIAMI’S FUTURISTIC AND ICONIC SUSPENDED BRIDGE CONNECTING MIAMI WITH MIAMI BEACH, AKA THE FOUNTAIN
DOWNTOWN MIAMI IS AN URBAN / METROPOLITAN CENTER THAT'S CHANGING DAILY – The magnificent construction (IN PROGRESS NOW) of this unique bridge was designed -and it’s being built, to become THE SIGNATURE ARCHITECTURAL ICON for Miami. Our photowalk outing is intended to be a historic documentary (journalistic) event capturing the construction of this project... AS IT STANDS TODAY. Note that three of the six arches have been completed: See short video clip https://www.youtube.com/shorts/i64R1IqscL0
You're welcome to join our group and be ready to practice specifics of street, architecture, and documentary photography during this photowalk / workshop event... You'll be able to identify photo opportunities, adapt to the best (available) light + field conditions (positive and negative) and anticipate the “decisive moment” (Henri Cartier-Bresson’s) around the many changes currently happening in Downtown Miami.
We’ll meet at the History Miami Museum / Library courtyard and catch a FREE ride in the Metromover from the Government Center to the Museum Park Station in Biscayne Blvd. From there we’ll circle the construction area from various points of view, looking for the best possible composition and images. Afterwards, we’ll walk along Biscayne Blvd to capture some iconic architectural views, such as The Freedom Tower (Old Miami News), the One Thousand Museum (building designed by Zaha Hadid Architects), the Adrianne Arsht Center (portions of old Sears store corner stairway), then return to our starting point via the Metromover.
The workshop leader / instructor (Rafael) taught photography classes at all levels and has personally led many field photography outings for over 15 years in Broward and Miami-Dade counties and will be available all along this shoot for specific tips, technical consultation, historic facts, and photography information to capture better images and make this a memorable learning experience - This workshop is a “One-of-a-Kind” technically supported photoshoot with attention to practical learning for which there is a $10 fee.
