Photography Course

 This past summer, RACC discontinued all of their Continuing Education classes, some of which I had been teaching for over 25 years. As a result I began to expand and offer classes, seminars, private tutoring and Photo field trips to the general public. some of the classes I offer are basic Digital Photography, Advanced Photography, Intro to Photoshop, Understanding Your Electronic Flash, and many more. A complete list of classes, details and times offered are available on my web site www.PhotographyClassesBerks.com.

I have also started a Facebook Fan Page for photo enthusiasts. A place to ask questions, enter contests and show off your work. Everyone is welcome to join in:

Winter is here and I have started working of a few projects that I had purposefully put off until the "indoor" months. One is using a method of increasing Depth of Field through "Focus Stacking". It is especially suited for macro shots and dramatically increases the range of sharpness in an object. Here are 2 tests I recently completed.

NEW location instructional Photography Seminars scheduled. Topics covered will be macro, close up photography, candid children photography, shooting waterfalls and water, and candid outdoor portraits. For details go to our Photography Courses page.
