*** CANCELED ***

This week's topic will be "How to Shoot and Edit Your Photos for HDR."
HDR (High Dynamic Range) Photography has been around for decades. In the film era it was done in the darkroom. Today, we use software like Lightroom, Photoshop or Photoshop Elements to create our HDR images.

Today's two hour class will cover all the basics of how to make HDR photos. The instructor will walk you through the steps to setup your camera, identify scenes appropriate for HDR and then how to edit them in the software of your choice. We’ll also discuss software like Photomatix and Lightroom to make your HDR images.

Late comers are always welcome and stay as long as your schedule permits. Please don't feel obligated to stay the whole two hours. We know your Saturday hours are valuable.

Do You Want to Continue the Learning After the Class and Get All Your Questions Answered?
