Course Description
In this workshop we explore your photography and how to develop a “Photographer’s Eye” by learning to see photographically. We do not dwell on the camera hardware or computers; instead we cover the visual, intellectual and intuitive elements which go into making a photograph.
Though not strictly required, this course’s success depends on student participation in the form of photo assignments and class critiques. Any photography medium is acceptable – film or digital, slides or polaroids, box cameras or high-end digital SLRs – whatever you use to evolve your “Photographer’s Eye!”
