Get up close with nature and the landscape using just the phone in your pocket. This is the class for you, whether your interest is artistic or simply documenting your experience in nature. Brad Sims, local nature photographer, joins ecologist Dr. Lauster to teach you techniques for better photographs and presentation. Learn how to compose, adjust focus, lighting and color, even on your phone camera. You are welcome to bring more advanced cameras as well. We will spend time outdoors, with panoramas big and small. Create images and video that you will want to come back to and share.

Meet at the Pinnacle Mountain State Park Visitor Center, 11901 Pinnacle Valley Rd, Little Rock, AR 72223
