/r/BostonStreetPhoto Meetup!

Have a camera and no idea how to use it? Know how to use it but don't have friends?Reddit's new Urban Photography group will be meeting Sunday the 28th of September to get to know each other and shoot around the city! We will be a mix of professional, amateur, and rookie photographers so don't feel shy in coming!---- We will be meeting on the stairs near the basketball statue at Government Center ----What we'll do:- According to the community, splitting up into groups will be the best route. Depending on the size, we'll be breaking into two or more groups in order to practice through the community challenges. During these unguided photo walks each team will work together (with an equal mix of experience levels) to finish their challenges and learning what they can. For the first few minutes we will also meet and take down ideas for what we'd like to do next time, challenge ideas, etc.The 28th's Photo Challenge (optional):"Pairs" - Shoot things that occur in frequencies of two or more."Portrait" - Snap a shot of someone in your group or ask someone nicely on the street"Silhouette" - Speaks for itself!"Closeup" - Get a macro/closeup shot of something. Anything. Learn to zoom with your feet!"Texture & Movement" - Capture movement over texture/patterns."Look Up" - Learn to be more aware of your surroundings by taking a shot of something above you."Reflection" - Puddles, mirrors, windows. Reflections are everywhere and great composition practice.What to Bring:- A camera. Any camera. Seriously! Bring your smartphone or your DSLR or your grandpa's WWII film camera. If you can frame a shot with it you can shoot it, we just can't guarantee we'll know how exactly to operate it.- Weather appropriate clothing, it may rain or at least be chilly, so be ready.- A good attitude.- Money for food. You do want to have dinner with your new friends don't you?Don't Bring:- Your full kit. You will not need 2 wide-angle, 3 telephoto and 4 Nikon bodies to take photos with us. This is a walkaround meetup and we'll be moving quite a bit. Pack lightly.- Money for us. This event is free and we don't want your money.Any questions?
