Description

In this intense three day workshop you will experience the advantages that a SLR camera with interchangeable lenses has over the fixed lens point and shoot digital cameras. After basic camera skills, such as proper camera handling, care, lens selection and use, auto focus and exposure are covered, you will move on, learning how to use the instant feedback of the digital camera to improve your photography. Color balance and histogram use in the field and in the lab will be covered. We will wade through the swamp of color space and color depth. Should you use jpeg or RAW files? Discussion, demonstration and hands-on work will cover all aspects of digital photography with Canon digital cameras. We will have several field trips followed by reviews of the images shot to practice and reinforce what we learn during the lectures. Barbara Ellison’s workshop will start with a welcome evening of social and informational exchange on Thursday, February 28 at 6:30 pm.

BARBARA ELLISON has been fortunate to be able to combine five of her favorite pastimes into her imaging experience – photography, art, gardening, travel and teaching. As a pro market representative of Canon USA she has had the opportunity to try her hand at photographing various subjects, ranging from political events to sports, from scenics to macro. When her husband, Michael Kovach, opened up an orchid nursery, she found that she was drawn to those unusual orchids and was able to spend time exploring different ways to present them. She has taught photography workshops around the country. Her work has been published in several books, and has been shown in galleries in Ohio, Maryland, North Carolina and Florida.
