After the Rain, iPhone in the garden - By Susan Bloom
‘After the Rain’ – A macro image of a flower captured by an iPhone – By Susan Bloom.

In search of the intimate composition, we will look at the artistic possibilities that are available on the iPhone. That exploration will involve macro photography, compositional skills, color palette choices, a few useful apps and tools, and a sense of playfulness.

How can you use focus as a compositional tool? We will use flowers as our path into ethereal, sensual imagery. Some images will move on to abstraction. This is a class full of exploration, the intuitive voice, and the joy of discovery.

This online workshop is part of the iPhone in the Garden series:

Susan also offers an in-person iPhone workshop:
