The world of digital photography is cutting edge, but is based on principles as old as the very first cameras themselves. This introductory class will help you to navigate through the technological confusion to free you to take better pictures, download and organize them in your computer and display your work with pride. This class emphasizes total workflow from creative ideas and composition all the through software to final output. Class time is divided between lecture, demonstration and critique, with the bulk of the shooting done outside of class. A DSLR camera is recommended, but not essential.
