Digital Photography Workshop---March 19!

Save the date---Saturday, March 19th---to attend our digital photography workshop. From 10:00 to 2:00 (bring your own sack lunch!), instructor Slade Elbert will teach you how to get the most out of your camera. He says,

“Join me in discovering the hidden world that lies within your camera.
Spend an afternoon stalking and capturing the wild and elusive images that
are present all around us. Topics to be discussed include composition,
light and shadow, seeing small, and the basics of flash photography. There
will be an opportunity for assistance with photo manipulation on the
computer.”
