Tuesdays, 6:30-8:30PM

This class will take your digital camera photography to a higher level of understanding the equipment. You will learn advanced settings and techniques to improve and capture the images you desire. Students must have some experience with using their camera or have taken a class with Roger before.

We will examine:

  • The relationship between exposure, ISO, and exposure compensation
  • Creative use of white balance
  • How color space and file types affect web postings and print making
  • Night photography, moon and milky way exposures
  • How and when to use flash creatively
  • Studio photography

The Class will explore advanced functions like: Bracketing, HDR photography, focus settings and Histograms. You will learn about lens and filter options and how they work for different styles of photography. Finally you will learn some basics in image editing and organization through computer programs.

Please show up with your camera ready to go: battery charged, memory card in and camera manual in tow. And most of all, prepare to have fun.

Roger concentrates on the total photo experience- what he calls the “Zen of Photography”. How to capture the beauty, emotion or humor that makes up your everyday life. The photo process includes knowledge of your camera, finding interesting subjects and lighting. Learn how to train your mind to find and frame the perfect photo.

Please register by 2/9/25 if you can attend.
