Session 1: LEARNING TO USE YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA

Everything you will ever need to
know about your digital camera.
Your photos will improve instantly
with a fuller understanding of
how your camera works and how
best to use it. Participants should
bring their camera and its
manual.
Session 2: DEVELOPING YOUR CREATIVE EYE
Sunday, February 12, 2012

Workshop will cover basic photography techniques and offer new ways of seeing and expressing yourself on film and/or digital image. Topics include: composition, exposure, lighting, color, and how to generally improve your photos. We will explore all types of photography: indoor and outdoor, landscape, portraits, animals, etc. Bring your camera and your manual if you have one.
 Session 3: MOVING BEYOND AUTOMATIC
Sunday, February 19, 2012
2:00 – 4:30 PM
Learn how to make the camera do what you want it to do. In this workshop you will learn how to select f-stops and shutter speeds to create the photo you want: blurred backgrounds, athletes frozen
in time and space, smooth water falls, etc. No matter what your specific
photographic interest is--indoor, outdoor, landscape, portraits, animals,
etc.--you will learn how to apply these techniques in your work.
A portion of the workshop will be devoted to evaluating our own photos
in a safe, relaxed, fun and non-judgmental environment.
Session 4: IN THE FIELD
Sunday, February 26, 2012
(Snow date: March 4, 2012)
2:00 – 4:30 PM
This workshop will take us
outside on the beautiful Grail
grounds where we will apply all
we have learned in our
previous workshops--how to
choose our subjects, how to
simplify our photos, how to
focus on our subject and
present it in the best light, etc.
After shooting, we will bring our work inside, look at it on the computer
and evaluate our photos in a safe, relaxed, fun and non-judgmental
environment.
Facilitator: Mary Ann G. Neuman focuses her personal work on travel
photography and on people in their natural environments. She has
created a body of work entitled Somebody’s Sister which offers glaring
