See the Light

Skill levels: Novice through Intermediate

While this course is aimed at somewhat more experienced photographers, it is readily accessible to all skill levels. The main objective is to take students’ work to a higher level through a better understanding of how light interacts with the camera and imaging media. We move beyond the “normal” ways of seeing and making photographs. Participants will explore how differences in light, shadow, transparency, reflections, etc. affect the final image.
