What we’re about
A COMMUNITY FOR ARTISTIC AND CREATIVE PHOTOGRAPHY.
Welcome New York to The Art of Photography! Our purpose is to spark creativity, open new doors, incite discussion and learn from each other in a positive and sharing environment. The basis of which is to facilitate the merging of the principles of art and graphic design with excellent camera craft. To take each one of us, no matter what level of experience, to places, levels and worlds that are out of our comfort zone. To grow, to see, to inspire unique visions. Our critique programs, our photo shoots and our educational sessions are free. Your submissions for discussion are for you to choose without regard to theme or genre.
The Art of Photography began as a museum art school program in 2002 and has expanded to over 14,000 members worldwide. So many of whom have grown into exceptional photographers that are hugely represented in international award shows. New York, we are truly excited for your participation and look forward to your development as Fine Art Photographers. Be on the lookout for some very exciting photo shoots and presentations that will be posted on an on-going basis. Also join our International Site to check out over 250 albums created by our members. Thank you for your interest and good shooting.

This presentation is a FREE VERY basic intro to Photoshop. Participants MUST download the handout and possibly (if you have a copy of Photoshop) have an image to explore during the presentation.
Let's take a little journey through the important parts of Photoshop. Photoshop is a huge application and it's easy to become overwhelmed with it at first. But, I don't think you have to know every technical part to begin using Photoshop, so this presentation is designed so you can start using Photoshop immediately, whether you are a technical person or not.
