Hunt’s Photo Walk: Emerging Series- Historic Downtown Boston

This Walk is part of our Emerging Series, as we cautiously begin to emerge from the COVID-19 lockdown. For this series of walks, we have chosen areas that are more spread out and with less foot traffic. We will also be limiting our group size to a maximum of 8 attendees with one instructor. After the course description (but before registration) will be guidelines for these walks. Please make sure to read them prior to registering.

Walk Description
Join Hunt’s Photo Education as we explore and photograph Historic Downtown Boston, including Faneuil Hall, Christopher Columbus Park, and more. On this walk we will discuss settings and techniques for long exposures, architectural photography, cityscapes, black and white, and composition.
We will start near Faneuil Hall photographing Quincy Market as the sun sets. We will also discuss “blue hour” and how to capture that vivid blue sky. We will then walk to the Old State House and work on capturing light trails and fine-tuning our long exposures. We will end the night by walking to Christopher Columbus Park and shooting long exposures of the waterfront.

Emerging Series- A Guideline for Photo Walks during the era of COVID-19
As the COVID lockdown ends and social restrictions begin to ease, we have decided to start offering our popular Hunt’s Photo Walks again.
Hunt’s Photo Education remains dedicated to the health and safety of every single attendee, student, and customer, first and foremost. We also are committed to the best possible learning experience. We have put forth rules and guidelines for Photo Walks that occur during the era of COVID.
•We will have no more than 6-8 attendees per Photo Walk with a single instructor
•We ask that all attendees wear a mask. (Please make sure the mask covers your mouth and nose.)
•We ask that all attendees socially distance 6 feet from one another, unless you are attending with the other person
•Hunt’s Photo Educators will be unable to physically handle others’ cameras
•Consider bringing sanitizing wipes and hand sanitizer
•If you are sick or feeling unwell, stay home! We will gladly give you credit towards a future walk!

These guidelines will stay in place until further notice. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at classes@huntsphoto.com.
