Art & Craft of B&W Photography

This class offers the opportunity to combine the information you have previously acquired and allow your shooting skills and darkroom skills to come together. Through lectures and demonstrations, we will help you understand the skills needed in exposing and developing the negative in a manner best suited to available light photography. The first two sessions will be spent learning details of how to optimize shooting techniques. Learn about "Light Isolates", how to determine effective film speeds (ISO) and how to pre-visualize your photo to have an increased three-dimensional view. A field trip to Greenfield Village will allow you to put these concepts into practice. The next four evening sessions are spent in the darkroom. The last evening is a print critique and review of your work to refine issues of composition, print mounting, matting and framing. All classroom and darkroom sessions are at our East English Village - Detroit, MI location. Class fee does not include admission to Greenfield Village. Evening session are conducted from 6:300-10:30 P.M.
