Do you feel as if your camera is controlling you instead of the other way around? Learn techniques to improve your photography
in the camera, not on the computer! Both film and digital photographers are welcome.
We will examine key camera functions as well as focus on improving composition, controlling point of focus, and learning how to
effectively use depth of field (blurred, soft background vs. detailed sharp background). Learn how to see light and take advantage
of directional light to add impact to your photographs. Also, learn to use flash photography in low light as well as in bright
sunlight!
In addition to classroom time, there will be plenty of opportunity to take pictures. Lots of personal attention and hands-on
practice to enhance your learning. Bring your camera with film / digital media, instruction manual, questions and a brown-bag
lunch.
