Disappointed with the photos you took on your last vacation?
Student comments
"Switching from a point-and-shoot 10 year old camera to a nice system camera was only one step for me in the direction of taking "good" photos. Of course there is a limit to what the technology allows, especially if you are only using automatic mode with a camera, so I found this great workshop with practical instruction on seeing interesting views and looking at photos differently. And to learn with which simple tricks you can actually get a better photo using the equipment you have at hand. The workshop by Lee McIntyre was fun and instructive and I went out and had new ideas and insights. ... If you have an opportunity for such a class with Lee McIntyre, I would strongly recommend it."
