Walk Description
Join Hunt’s Photo Education for a photo walk through MIT in Cambridge and onto Memorial Drive overlooking the Charles. On the walk, we will discuss Architectural Photography, Image Composition, Long Exposures, and Black and White Photography. Photographers of all skill levels are encouraged to attend.

MIT is not only famous as a research institute and school, but also for the stunning architecture that has been commissioned. These include the Landau Building (“The Wedge”), The Dreyfuss Building, Simmons Hall (“The Sponge”), the Zesiger Center (“Z-Center”), the newly constructed Sean Collier Memorial, and the Stata Center (pictured). We will discuss the many ways these pieces of architecture can be photographed in the evening and night skies. Our walk will take us in and out of the MIT campus and along Memorial Drive and the Charles River. If weather allows, we will have the opportunity to photograph the sunset along the river as well.
