How to Make Better Photographs with John Tunney

Dates: Saturdays, 5 weeks starting on October 24

Time: 9:30 – 11:30

Cost: Member $210/ Non-Member $225

The class is for anyone (beginner or experienced) who wants to make better photographs.
We’ll start with the fundamentals – the basics of exposure, focusing and camera controls. We will
also cover the principles of good composition and the creative use of shutter speed and
aperture to craft more interesting images. We will then get into how to apply all of this to different
types of photography, including landscape, nature, people, travel and more. We’ll also cover
the basics of editing your pictures on your computer. Plan to take lots of pictures. Classes will
include weekly photo assignments and helpful review sessions.

What You’ll Need

Any camera is fine, but you’ll get the most out of the class with a camera with manual controls. You will also need a computer and the the ability to upload pictures.
