Photography 101
This is a five-week class which will help you gain a better understanding of your camera,
camera settings, photo composition, lighting, aperture setting, and shutter
speed.
Photographs will be taken both in and out of the classroom, with weekly photo
assignments.
Each
class will consist of time devoted to one aspect of photography, and one aspect
of technology related to photography. Of course, there will be time during each
class to take pictures! You can learn the technical, artistic, and practical
uses of your camera and have some fun at the same time.
Future 2010 classes
are Tuesdays: March 2 through March
30 **Session Full**; Wednesdays: March 3
through March 31
**Session Added**; and
Tuesdays: May 11 through
June 8, 2010.

Intermediate
Photography Class
This class is more
“hands on” than
Photography 101.
It’s like a Whitman’s
Sampler of photography
genres, comprised of
mini Safaris, each in a
different location and
differing subject
matter, with 1:1
coaching from the
instructor. Time
will also be devoted to
reviewing and critiquing
images from the various
shoots. Certain
situations require
certain lenses, lighting
and technical skill.
Knowing how to set your
camera in these
situations takes the
guess work out of
getting the shot right
every time.
Prerequisites include:
Photography 101 or a
solid working knowledge
of your camera in semi
automatic (shutter and
aperture priority) and
manual modes. You
should also be familiar
with your computer for
downloading and storing
your images. The
last class was held in February
2010.

PHOTOGRAPHY CLASS!
