Prerequisites
Participants must:
- have a working knowledge of shutter speed, aperture, ISO, depth of field and the relationship between each.
- have reasonable competency with their computer and photo editing software so they can select, organize and prepare photos for presentation.
I throughly enjoyed this week. Not only have I learned from Chris and Dennis but also from the creativity of all the participants. The pace was good, feedback fantastic and venue spectacular. Wink, 2018
What to Bring
After registration, a detailed list will be provided. The basics include:
- a laptop computer for daily processing of images. Computers and software should be up to date and reliable.
- to take full advantage of the photographic techniques taught, a camera with multiple exposure capability, including dark and light blend modes, is recommended. However, this is not a requirement. You may have a camera that takes multiple exposures of 2 or 3 or none at all; this is fine, there is still much to learn. Feel free to contact an instructor for clarification.
- recommended lenses include wide angle, mid range and telephoto zooms. Specialty lenses, such as fisheye and macro, are optional.
- tripod.
