Course Description
This class covers major principles of photography. In the simplest of terms, we work on capturing what you see and how you want to depict it. We will concentrate on the nuts and bolts of our cameras, composition, lighting, photojournalism, post-photo processing, sharing, backup, and storage. Each week we will share photos taken since the last class session.
