2013-04-30 / 1 Comment

TheAppWhisperer.com is offering a place on the Advanced iPhoneography Group 5-week workshops run by Richard Gray, aka @rugfoot and Gray’s Anatomy columnist, starting May 13, 2013.

Here’s what you have to do. Simply tag what you consider to be your most “advanced” photo of the last year #AiGChallenge on Instagram. It can be advanced in the sense of using very technical skills, or advanced in the complexity of its meaning, or because you think it breaks new ground or is experimental.

You will also need to like theappwhisperer.com Facebook page by going to our homepage and scrolling down to the FB link – home page link

Make sure you can attend the course just in case you win: the workshops are run from 6:30pm weekly starting May 13 in central London for 5 weeks. See here for details and here for some examples of work from the first series of dates. The winner will be announced in this week’s Gray’s Anatomy. Good luck!”

The Advanced iPhoneography Group is a series of five 3-hour workshops led by Richard Gray @rugfoot on advanced photography with the iphone. The aims of the group are to inspire members to new photographic creations, to provide instruction on advanced techniques, to analyse and discuss concepts and issues in iphoneography and to form an off-line community of forward-looking mobile photographers in London. Members should have at least 1 year of experience shooting or around 1,000 published mobile photos and be familiar with the classic mobile photography apps. We aim to take members out of their comfort zones and inspire them to tackle new subjects and to experiment with new techniques. The workshops will be structured around the presentation and discussion of advanced techniques and issues and will involve challenging weekly assignments. Member numbers will be limited to 15 per series of workshops. The venue is in a great place for some creative shooting: near the hustle and bustle of Piccadilly Circus, some grand old buildings, Green Park nearby and the Church itself is a beautiful subject (we will be in a fully-equipped meeting room).

Venue: St James Church, 197 Piccadilly, London. Nearest tube is Piccadilly Circus.

Series 1: Monday evenings, 6:30-9:30, April 8, 15, 22, 29 and May 7 (Tues) SOLD OUT
Series 2: Monday evenings 6:30-9:30, May 13, 20, 28 (Tues), June 4 (Tues) and 10
Cost: £100 (see registration form for payment details).
