Digital Photography

Learn to use your digital camera with a combined approach to manipulating the aperture, shutter speed, and ISO. Once you master the camera for the best exposure, try artistically enhancing the image using the Adobe Lightroom software. Each class will consist of reviewing 10 of your best pictures from the prior class meeting, taking new pictures, and enhancing pictures using a laptop.

Participants are asked to bring their own digital camera and five printed images of recent photos. Participants are welcome to bring their own laptop loaded with Adobe Lightroom software, if they wish.
