This class will introduce students to the mechanics of their camera, as well as help them see light and learn how to control it for better images. Compositional rules and the effective use of line and contrast will also be covered. The class will be divided into three basic parts: 1. A discussion of the attendees’ photo submissions (no names will be used). 2. An hour-long power point to illustrate important photography concepts. 3. Hands on application of the photography concepts covered as students take their cameras outside to take photos.
Students should bring a camera. In addition, prior to class, each should email an 8-by-10 format image (higher resolution) to the instructor at frenchfoto@cox.net.
