Maine is a beautiful place to photograph throughout the year. This class explores the unique opportunities of photographing during the four seasons – including foliage, snow, Christmas, and spring flowers. The course will start with a review of camera settings and a discussion of the elements of composition. It is hoped that the class will photograph in the field at such places as Vaughan Woods in Hallowell, orchards, and farms.
