SUMMARY:Perfect Pictures Every Time
DESCRIPTION:Understanding photography basics is the key to taking control of your camera and knowing you got the shot when you were taking it.  If you would like to take your skill level from shooting in Auto to having full control over your camera\, this intensive class is for you! A step-by-step PowerPoint presentation helps teach the basic principles of photography including: camera options and set-up\, peripheral equipment\, image exposure and histograms\, and will touch on shooting for HDR and working with motion\, depth of field\, and composition.  The class is paced to allow time for questions and interaction\, with about half of the day in the classroom experimenting with the cameras\, and the other half spent in the field\, practicing camera techniques and shooting options.  A comprehensive handout will include all the major points covered in the presentation. While the class instruction is mostly landscape based\, these techniques and principles can be applied to all photographic situations.
