Learn Photography!

If you have a digital SLR and want to learn how to get more from it, this is the group for you.

Each session will focus on one aspect of photography, so you can do as many or as few sessions as you like.

To participate, you will need an SLR camera (one with interchangeable lenses) that has A, S (or T) and M modes. No prior experience is needed.
