What makes a photo interesting? – Ubiquitous smart phones and other modern electronic devices made photography available for everyone. Even the youngest know how to take a photo. However, it is not so self-understanding, how to shoot a truly good, well-composed photo. In our photo studio, set up only for tonight, visitors are more than welcome to consult specialists and professional photographers on the challenges of photography. Our guides will give a short introduction on composition, set up and lighting, thus, next time, when you are shooting a pic with your phone you will be able to remember the most important keywords.
