    It was interesting to see how Sahid adjusted based on the level of the people present. In this one he emphasized challengers as much as the use of more specific techniques. That made the day more useful and enjoyable.

    My instructor Sahid is a talented and accomplished photographer. His teaching style is gentle and encouraging. The class was offered in a real word setting. We were given different challenges to accomplish during the event and Sahid provided guidance as needed. He is very approachable and easy to learn from. I'm looking forward to the next class.

    Sahid Perez was good at explaining the proper set-up for the camera and his explanation of the rule of thirds was good and useful. He explained some of the functions of my camera and was patient with the people attending. the meeting place was easy to find and he was there on-time. The recap was also good. It was good to learn how to add the pier to a sunset photo composition.

    Native Venezuelan, southern California resident, and Citizen of the world. I've been passionate about surf and art since a young age but it wasn't until my first photography class in art school back in 2012, that I really felt the desire to make it a career. My heart is in capturing the essence of different cultures, people, and landscapes around the world, as well as capturing the intimacy of moments for a lifetime memory. I specialize in architectural, documentary, street, portraiture, landscape and fine-art photography. I love to work in a natural environment, inspired by beautiful color, creative compositions, and interesting textures that will create art to hang in your home.

    I have been working on my photography for 10+ years testing models from LA Models, I even modelled Internationally and worked with top photographers and creative people for over 11 years in many big photography, video/film production jobs, for advertising campaigns, top magazine editorials, music videos, and TV commercials,

    Being Healthy is essential to Life, and I believe one of the most important things to do to be Healthy is Love Life and Nature, and lifting People's spirit with a Positive Heart. This shining of your Light of Life creates inspiration and makes doing things joyful and simple with ease, especially to have or grow an eye for making images. No matter what we do, if we are really Loving Life everything is being served and lifted and somewhere this was proven to you by some Photograph/s. And so Life Gives Life, e.g., Photographer Loved Life and made a picture and People see picture and are lifted and Love Life, Life Is Given Life Now!

    Thank you for your consideration!

    I recently returned from a Spiritual retreat of solitude for several years, with Sacred Epiphanies for saving Life and all I would love to do now is save Life and share what I have found which can provide a firm foundation to do anything, do it optimally and have it be done perfectly!

    As far as doing anything goes, what Universally serves All Hearts is Thee most important querry to begin any project or even task, and as far as Photography goes, this philosophy gives you what is needed to choose images worth keeping?
    We just do not have the time or are minds to waste!

    I?m always looking for opportunities to capture some beautiful colors and compositions. I ride my bike to the harbor and I try and time the ride to capture the sun rise, I enjoy the atmosphere and many opportunities to find different compositions around the harbor. So I?m constantly stopping along the slips, and found this one area behind the building and near the first slip, also behind a iron fence, which I can fit my I phone through the rails.

    Taken with Nikon D7500 with 300mm Nikkor lens. Two male Kingfishers possibly adult male and offspring sitting low by the River Crane. Light was low so had to use a high ISO. Because of this the image had to be denoised . It was then cropped and clarity and texture added in Lightroom. I have a nice triptych of them sitting in three different poses.

    I was on my way home when I saw the paragliders hovering ahead. So even though I thought I would try to get a few photos of them. The storm was getting closer & we all thought we would get wet, but just before it hit, it threw out a quick burst of colour. Sometimes it?s all about timing. iPhone 12 Pro Max & Snapseed.
