Photography #101 in Pinckney starting in Sept.

NOT HAPPY WITH YOUR PHOTOS?

Whether you are the family photojournalist or want better photos for your projects, this class will teach you to capture better photos.


Don't worry about having a "fancy" camera, this class is for people with "point & shoot" cameras and for people who want to learn the basics of their DSLR camera.


Each of the three-session class will have two parts, the first will focus (pun intended) on getting you familiar with your camera and the second part of each session we will discuss composition and tips for the various type of photos, such as people, pets & portraits, landscapes and still-lives.


There are extensive hand-outs and there will be homework assignments - so you can practice what you learn and we'll review them at the beginning of the next session.


The instructor, Sue Balk, says, "My photos have been awarded over 22 Best-in-Shows and over two hundred blue ribbons in the six years exhibiting them. They have appeared in many venues locally and in books, newspapers, websites and even in national magazines. I enjoy sharing my camera and computer skills to help others create their own award-worthy photos. Hope you can join us"

DATES for the three-session class are Sept. 28th, Oct. 5th & 12th. The classes start at 1:00 p.m., last about 1.5 to 2.5 hours and are held at the NEW Pinckney Community Library.

Cost for the three-session class is $75 plus a $10 material fee.

Pre-registration is required and class size is limited.
