*Photography Workshops at the Kanabec History Center
*Photography can be a fun, invigorating and enlightening way to capture 
and share the world we see and experience. The advent of digital cameras 
has made photography so much more accessible and at the same time, more 
confusing. These workshops are designed to explain photography in 
understandable terms in a fun setting. Once we understand how cameras 
work, we will work to develop an "eye" for photography and creative 
artistic expression through the medium of photography. Register Now! 
Call 320-679-1665
*Creating Images in the Field
Sat. April 30, 2011 Meet at 8 AM. *

This is a day long workshop. We will leave the History Center at 8 am 
and drive to Banning State Park. In the car on the way, we will discuss 
what the light of the day is telling us about the images we can take and 
other factors/assignments for the day. Each person will have individual 
time in the field with the instructor to go over their camera, 
suggestions for creating an image with "pop" or other questions. We will 
return to the History Center by 4 pm. *BRING A BAG LUNCH, YOUR CAMERA 
AND MANUAL*. Dress appropriately for the day. If weather is REALLY
