The first class will meet at the Gazebo, next to the Chamberlin, at 6:30pm. After a brief orientation, we will walk as a group to some of the famous landmarks at the Fort, ending the walk at a great spot for a sunset, probably around 9:15pm. The second class will be held at The Charles Taylor Visual Arts Center from 6:30 to 9:00pm. The instructor will critique the photos using guidelines that will be given to each student as a handout. The photos will be critiqued anonymously unless the photographer wishes to identify their shots during the critique. The class is for photographers of all skill levels. Participants will need a DSLR camera where they can shoot on the full auto or custom settings. A tripod would be helpful, but not required.
