I will teach the "Digital Darkroom" course using the Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 tools to improve, restore or salvage your digital images. I will discus other Photoshop versions as well. It will start on Monday June 7 through Monday the 14th. (Mon - Wed-Mon) and it will take place at Midlands Technical College at the Beltline Campus campus. Again, the classes go from 6:00 PM until 9:00 PM.

Hands-on computer instruction and challenging photo editing assignments make this class entertaining, enjoyable and educational. Basic familiarity with a computer is required. Students are expected to own a digital editing software program and have some familiarity with it. The class discusses a variety of Adobe digital editing software versions - from Elements to Photoshop.”

I will be repeating this courses again on October 11 - October 18, 2010, this time at the Northeast Campus. Keep an eye on the catalog.

Next , I will be teaching Mastering Photography at the Harbison campus of Midlands tech on June 16 through the 23rd. The schedule is Wed-Mon-Wed, 6 - 9 PM. This is not a beginner's course. It is designed to transform you from a basic to an advanced level in photography.

I will repeat this same course at the Northeast campus on September 27-October 4, 2010; again Mon-Wed Mon from 6 - 9 PM.

I will be teaching a new course titled Understanding Digital Photography at the Northeast campus September 13 - 20, 2010 (Mon-Wed-Mon) from 6 - 9 PM. This course will cover most features of digital photography, which accounts for its popularity.
