Intro to Digital Photo on a Island in WI

A few weeks ago I spent 5 days on a small island in WI. I was teaching a group of 10 adults who signed up to take a short "intro to digital photo" class through the College of Visual Arts.

I'm currently scanning some negatives of some photos I made on the island, so I'll be posting those shortly. In the meantime, here are some of my giant Post-It Notes around our classroom with some of my photo notes from the class on them. If you know something about photography, you'll be able to decipher most of these:

Basic camera operation


Some digital camera issues and settings


White balance, drive modes, and zooming


File size, compression, jpg vs raw


The START of the Photoshop notes before just jumping right in

Back with some images from the island shortly.
