The Photographers Gallery Workshop of Framing and Composition Isabelle Young November 2024
I feel defrauded I have taken many photography course in-person and online and this is the worst ever The content is all but Framing and Composition The presentation only went through a series of photographs described as exceptional but without explaining what makes them exceptional and without providing any clue on composition rules There were only two fleeting slides covering the rule-of-thirds really and the Fibonacci spiral Golden Ration really Primary school stuff Still even those basic rules were not elaborated discussed analysed etc And there is so much more that could have been presented and discussed The morning section was advertised as 10 30am until 1 30pm but it finished abruptly at 12 15pm and we were forcibly asked to leave the room to reconvene at 2 30pm at the British Museum The afternoon assignment was about photographing the British Museum performing several tasks What an inappropriate choice of location The British Museum on a Saturday afternoon Really Are you sure that the crowd will facilitate photography Are you sure that security guards will not have a say I have had terrible experiences with security guards in other renowned places despite pre-clearance with the venues I found myself shouted up from security and prevented from taking pictures Why not choose a less controversial place Street Soho is just around the corner a square a historical building they choose instead the worst place ever for a Saturday afternoon photoshoot Finally I was not impressed by the tuition Isabelle might have a Master from a prestigious College but tuition was rather plain and just illustrative no insight on what really works in framing and composition If at all possible I will seek a refund and never again take a course with The Photographers Gallery which has otherwise exceptional exhibitions

The Photographers Gallery is superb
The Photographers Gallery is in a very convenient location in central London - on a small street just off Oxford Street close to Oxford Circus tube station The gallery has a programme of very interesting photography exhibitions and an excellent shop that sells books cards films and some cameras There is also a print sales gallery where you can buy original prints On the ground floor there is a small cafe selling hot and cold drinks and food The gallery also organises a very interesting programme of talks events and courses Ordinary membership is relatively cheap I have been a member since the 1980s and think that the Photographers Gallery only gets better and better It s absolutely superb
