#FGJ: The Art of Photography with George Johnson
Tuesdays, 2:00-4:00 pm
September 14-October 19, (6 weeks)
This class is to help you understand your digital camera and to help you see the art in the world around you. So many times you want to capture the smiles on your kids and grandkids faces or just walk around your neighborhood and share the colors and shapes of beauty of simple things. Learning the dials on your camera can help you share your creative eye, for scrapbooking or capturing and turning them into watercolors or oil paintings. In this class we will explore camera settings, composition, cropping, photography software, and framing.
