Photography: Your City Through the Camera Lens

Whether you’re an experienced photographer or a complete beginner, your surroundings can offer great creative inspiration. The sights, the smells, the sounds, and the people are sure to inspire you and provide you with a new way of looking at things. In class, we will discuss your work in a supportive environment and consider what goes into taking great photos—color and composition, form and content, and emotional resonance in the use of atmosphere and exposure—as you work to build your technical aptitude in digital photography. Between classes, you’ll explore your local area to practice your new skills and knowledge, while creating a digital image bank of your work. Gain familiarity with digital photography, including the technical use of a digital camera, basic art terms and meanings, manipulation of elements (such as color, composition, and form), and introductory skills in photo editing.

Please Note: You must provide your own camera that can be set to manual controls to participate in this course.
