Get your creative juices flowing this Friday morning with a photo walk hosted by Garrett Roth, moderator of the @igerssf account. Garrett frequently travels around Northern California, Oregon and Nevada, focusing on landscape and portrait photography outside of his 9-to-5, and uses the 500px and Instagram platforms to share his photography work. We’ll be taking a walk that incorporates the city skyline, Chinatown, North Beach, Washington Square Park and Coit Tower, while Garrett shares his experiences as a photographer and community leader.
We’ll meet at the entrance to Ina Coolbrith Park at Vallejo and Taylor, and end at Coit Tower. Anyone is welcome to stay a little longer for great shots of the city from atop Coit Tower, which opens at 10am. Our route can be found here. Text Alex (500px) at 415 769 8363 if you get lost!
This is a more traditional format where participants absorb information through presentations and talks.
This FieldTrip will not be recorded.
500px is a community where over 7 million photographers in over 190 countries share their best work online. Almost two years ago, 500px launched a stock photo marketplace where the photographers earn an industry-leading royalty, giving them another way to be rewarded for doing what they love.

The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.
Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.
Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going!
Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.
We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things. Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.
It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
