lecture covering techniques, such as Long-Exposure Pan/Tilt, "Multiple-

Zoom, Soft-Glow Montage and Composite Montage.

Charles will also demonstrate how to use a free script in Photoshop to accomplish this same look in post processing, if your camera does not have a built-in multiple exposure feature, or you wish to learn another way of creating painterly images.

Then, for the second half of the day, we will venture outside on the beautiful grounds of Amy Davies' studio where Charles will demonstrate each of these painterly techniques in the field, and you'll have the opportunity to try them out yourself with lots of 1-on-1 help from Charles.

The workshop will include assignments, supportive image evaluations (where we'll digitally project and discuss your images from in the field), classroom demo using the Photoshop Multiple-Exposure script, discussion of which subject(s) work best for these techniques, and a handout for reference after the workshop.

Charles' books also will be available for purchase at the workshop:

Impressionistic Photography: A Field Guide to Using Your Camera as a

Paintbrush, Tiny Worlds: Creative Macro Photography Skills, and Creative

Macro Photography: Professional Tips & Techniques.
