Here is an opportunity to learn how to capture great images, whether you are using your cellphone or a DSLR camera. Professional photographer Thomas Nighswander, who specializes in photographing State and National Parks and the Great Lakes, will begin this workshop indoors and then head outside for hands-on practice with your camera. The focus will be on what creates a great photograph, how to see with a creative eye, and how your camera can best capture those special moments. Bring your own camera or cell phone.
