SUMMARY:Digital Photography: Take Better Pictures with your Cell Phone!
DESCRIPTION:The great thing about phone cameras is that they’re always with us. But we’ve all cursed them for failing to get that once-in-a-life-time picture.

And that understanding will help you to capture more pictures that you love. \nI will use an iPhone in class but people with other brands of phone are welcome. Cell phone cameras can vary considerably from phone to phone\, so the focus of the class is not on specific camera settings. Instead\, the class will focus on ideas and strategies for using the phone creatively.\nClass Fee: $30\nAges: Teens and Adults 13+\nRegistration Deadline: 5/23 12 PM\nMaterials to Bring: Cell phone with a working camera
