Continuous Learning: Digital Photography Course

Even for someone like me who uses a camera on a daily basis and to earn a living, continuous learning is a wonderful thing. For my birthday my sister gave me a digital photography course so that I can learn the unique functioning of my digital cameras - as opposed to the old SLR that I first learned on.
However, they need to make sure that at least 10 people are signed up before the course will go ahead, so if you are interested and considering a photography course, this one is a cracker, so sign up now!

DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY COURSE

The course is designed for anyone who wishes to understand the mechanics and operational workings of their digital camera, be introduced to basic image management techniques using the latest digital editing software, and learn more about photography in a relaxed and creative environment.

Course Content:

* Operation of digital cameras - point and shoot and SLR variety

During the course, students will be exposed to a wide range of photographers work via periodic slide shows, and have their own work analyzed during critique sessions.
