This class is designed for those who have taken any of the Photography Basics classes and want the opportunity to work in the field to reinforce the material covered in the classroom. We’ve encouraged you to leave the Auto settings behind and to shoot in the Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority or Manual modes so now it’s time for some hands-on.

Our location at the unique setting of the Sculpture Garden at the National Gallery of Art gives us plenty of photo opportunities to practice exposure settings and creative captures.

We’ll review the exposure settings and then photograph around our location and practice using various settings to achieve the look you want in the image.

We'll be working with you to reinforce:

• Camera Controls
• ISO Settings
• Controlling motion with Shutter Speeds
• Depth of Field and setting the aperture for the 'look' you want
• White Balance
• Focus Settings
• Playback tools to evaluate focus and exposure
• Composition - Framing an interesting photograph

Join us and come away with stronger skills for setting exposure and capturing exciting images that you’re proud to show off.
Any camera with the Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority or Manual modes is appropriate. Bring your camera and any or all of your lenses. We’ll work with what you have in your bag. No tripod allowed for this class.
Please note: It is assumed you have already taken a Basics class and are somewhat familiar with the manual exposure modes. We will not be able to introduce you to this material at this class.

Class Limit : 7-8
