You will have the opportunity to make a wide variety of images from lifestyle, landscape, photo journalism, and sports. Between Venice Beach with a skatepark, the bodybuilders, the gymnasts, the everyday people, the rides, and pier concessions, you will find a very photo-rich environment. Bonus: The sunset. Plan on being there from 4 to 8 p.m. There are places to eat on the pier. The most important learning experience in this environment is being flexible because there is so much going on.
