Digital Photography--Point and Shoot
Do you feel inadequate because you have a small pocket digital camera while your friend is lugging around a digital SLR? Well don't! Learn how you can get better photos than your friend with his 35mm SLR. If you want to know how to make the best use of that pocket camera, register soon as seating is limited. You will learn how to edit photos using Adobe Photoshop Elements; create and post photos to internet services like Fliker; use a separate flash; transfer, store, crop, resize, and enhance your photos, and more. We even provide you with a 2GB flash drive to store and transfer images. Class meets for two consecutive Fridays.
