We encourage photographers of all skill levels to consider these classes\, as they will build upon your experience and provide an excellent chance to work on your imagery! \nSpeedlights 101 and Beyond!\nThis class is all about two things: Learning how to use the basics of your flash on the camera and how (and why) to take the flash off the camera.\nJoin Hunt’s Photo Educator Paul Nelson as we discuss how to take pictures using a speedlight\, and make them look great\, no matter what the situation. We will discuss photographing people\, but also photographing product and flashes work. We’ll talk all about the basics\, including modes\, settings\, and more!\nWhether you own a flash and have no idea how to use it\, you want to take great photos at functions and family events that are in low light\, or you just want to learn how to add a flash into your repertoire\, this course is for you! \nIn week one\, we will look at the basic camera and flash settings when using the flash on the camera\, including light positioning. In week two\, we will get a bit more creative by adding in diffusion and reflectors. We will also work to refine flash positioning and camera settings to maximize efficiency. In week three\, we will demonstrate taking the flash off-camera and show some of the benefits of doing that. In week four\, we will tie together the whole process\, including how to properly edit photos. \nEach week we will have a general presentation and discussion about a topic and will present an assignment. You can submit for the assignment or just watch our weekly critiques of others–it’s up to you! We will also supplement the class with additional instructional videos. \nYou don’t need to know the inner workings of your flash to take this class! Photographers of all levels should apply\, even those at a basic level\, as we will cascade the learning process. You should have a speedlight\, aka a flash that is detachable from your camera. Flash triggers can be helpful. A reflector may also be helpful. Note: This is not a class about the on-board flash on your camera. In general\, we never recommend using the on-board flash (unless you absolutely have to). \nPhotographers should have an understanding of their camera and general exposure before taking this class. \nRegistering and what is needed\nAfter you register for this class\, you will receive a confirmation email that will include information about how to access the online class\, including an online ID code that you will need to get into the class. Make sure to save this information. We will also send a reminder email about 48 hours prior to the class time with that same information. \nLayout of the class\nThe class will begin promptly at the time listed. If for some reason you cannot attend one of the sessions\, don’t worry! They will be recorded and you will be able to watch them at your leisure! During each class\, you are welcome to type in questions in the Question box if you have specific questions as they are asked. We will do our best to answer those questions\, but if not\, feel free to ask them at the end. \n“You Are Being Recorded” (And Other Note Related Items)\nWe will be recording this class! The video will be available for download about 24-hours after the class for all attendees\, so don’t worry about taking unending notes. We will send this link attendees to download and rewatch at any time. In addition to this\, we will generally send out a PDF of the presentation (when applicable) and handouts on the topic. If handouts and PDFs are included\, we will send it out with the link for the video. \nNo online classes should be shared and cannot be shared in a public environment\, including with camera clubs\nThe online content is the copyright of Hunt’s Photo Education and/or the Instructor.

These classes are designed to provide you time\, opportunity\, and guidance in shaping your creative photographic voice.

We will reconvene a few days later for an online image review to discuss elements of your images.\nThe Personal Vision Series is a crossroads of many different ideas that we offer with Hunt’s Photo Education: Topic-based instruction/classes\, Photo Walks\, & Image Reviews.

We will have an instructional online presentation\, and attendees will reconvene for our Image Review about a week later.

During the walk\, we will discuss shooting in lower light with an emphasis on night photography. This will include assistance with exposure\, composition\, focusing\, use of tripods\, and a myriad of other settings and concepts.\nBoston is often referred to as a “city of neighborhoods”. One of the city’s most notable neighborhoods\, and its oldest\, is the North End. Beginning in the 1600s this is where immigrants to the New World entered the city for the first time\, which made the North End a busy\, vibrant center of activity. Today\, this tightly knit area is known as “Little Italy” given the prominent Italian-American influence and population found here. Quaint eateries\, fine restaurants\, and historic locations are characteristics that make the North End one of Boston’s premier destinations.\nThis walk is also an excellent chance to work on street photography. During the first hour\, our light will start to change\, giving us some excellent opportunities at casual portraits and street scenes. As we move into more of the nighttime light\, we will shift to long exposures.

It’s important to fully understand the “why” and “how” of your camera settings. \nIn this outdoor\, hands-on class\, you’ll learn all about the basics of photography. We will discuss Exposure (how light works with the camera)\, the Big Three Settings (Aperture\, Shutter Speed\, & ISO)\, how they affect your picture and how to set them\, and what mode to set it to on your camera! We’ll discuss changing depth-of-field (controlling what’s in focus in the background)\, stopping or blurring the action in your scene\, and many other basic picture-taking techniques. This will be an excellent opportunity to learn about your camera in a fun and safe environment! Join us to strengthen your photographic knowledge! \nIn this session of Beginner Photography in the Field…\n…we will be going to Scituate Lighthouse in Scituate. Scituate Lighthouse sits along the rocky coast of the South Shore of Massachusetts. This is an excellent area to learn about photography with a variety of fine-details and scenic landscapes that can lead to terrific photographs. Bring your camera and your enthusiasm to learn all about photography in a hands-on\, real-life environment! \nUpdated COVID-19 Policies for outdoor Hunt’s Photo Walks and Workshops\nHunt’s Photo Education is aligning with CDC and state guidelines and will no longer require face masks for our outdoor Photo Walks.

We will reconvene a few days later for an online image review to discuss elements of your images.\nThe Personal Vision Series is a crossroads of many different ideas that we offer with Hunt’s Photo Education: Topic-based instruction/classes\, Photo Walks\, & Image Reviews.

We will have an instructional online presentation\, and attendees will reconvene for our Image Review about a week later.

To become better photographers\, it helps to understand this by creating the printed image as a final product\, which is the purpose behind the Printed Vision Series.\nEach Printed Vision topic will meet for two sessions. In the first session\, we will discuss the topic and elaborate on editing with examples. This will include discussion of exposure\, dynamic range and color\, but also deeper points\, such as noise reduction\, image sharpening and grain. In between sessions 1 and 2\, attendees will independently process 1-2 images and submit them to the instructor for printing. We will print one of the two images leading into the second session and discuss some of the challenges we face in printing them.\nYou do not need to produce a new image for this class and can go into your archives to print\, but you are welcome to go out into the field and create something new based on the topic! \nThis Month’s Printed Vision Session: Printing in Black & White\nBlack & White printing has an historic place in photography\, as for the past 175 years\, it has been the dominant method of printing and viewing photographs. There are many things to think about when we edit an image for printing in Black & White\, and this course will discuss those many items.\nIn this session\, we will discuss different paper options\, what to look for in the editing process\, and more. Our instructional online presentation will be held on June 8th from 7-8pm and we will reconvene for our Printed Image Review on June 24th from 7-9pm. You will have that time period in between to photograph and/or edit your images. In the end\, you will receive a 12×18″ print on fine art Baryta paper. (Please note: The cost of a 12×18 or 13×19 print on fine art paper is $35-$40; the cost of this class includes the cost of that print!) \nReceiving Your Print\nAfter the class\, your print can either be mailed to you or picked up at one of our Hunt’s Photo store locations. \nRegistering and what is needed\nAfter you register for this class\, you will receive a confirmation email that will include information about how to access the online class\, including an online ID code that you will need to get into the class.

They will be recorded and you will be able to watch them at your leisure!\nOur Multi-Session Series is designed to “keep the conversation going” by engaging with our attendees in a more personal way. In each of these classes\, we will have 10-15 attendees and provide direct feedback on images. We encourage photographers of all skill levels to consider these classes\, as they will build upon your experience and provide an excellent chance to work on your imagery! \nSpeedlights 101 and Beyond!\nThis class is all about two things: Learning how to use the basics of your flash on the camera and how (and why) to take the flash off the camera.\nJoin Hunt’s Photo Educator Paul Nelson as we discuss how to take pictures using a speedlight\, and make them look great\, no matter what the situation. We will discuss photographing people\, but also photographing product and flashes work. We’ll talk all about the basics\, including modes\, settings\, and more!\nWhether you own a flash and have no idea how to use it\, you want to take great photos at functions and family events that are in low light\, or you just want to learn how to add a flash into your repertoire\, this course is for you! \nIn week one\, we will look at the basic camera and flash settings when using the flash on the camera\, including light positioning. In week two\, we will get a bit more creative by adding in diffusion and reflectors. We will also work to refine flash positioning and camera settings to maximize efficiency. In week three\, we will demonstrate taking the flash off-camera and show some of the benefits of doing that. In week four\, we will tie together the whole process\, including how to properly edit photos. \nEach week we will have a general presentation and discussion about a topic and will present an assignment. You can submit for the assignment or just watch our weekly critiques of others–it’s up to you! We will also supplement the class with additional instructional videos. \nYou don’t need to know the inner workings of your flash to take this class! Photographers of all levels should apply\, even those at a basic level\, as we will cascade the learning process. You should have a speedlight\, aka a flash that is detachable from your camera. Flash triggers can be helpful. A reflector may also be helpful. Note: This is not a class about the on-board flash on your camera. In general\, we never recommend using the on-board flash (unless you absolutely have to). \nPhotographers should have an understanding of their camera and general exposure before taking this class. \nRegistering and what is needed\nAfter you register for this class\, you will receive a confirmation email that will include information about how to access the online class\, including an online ID code that you will need to get into the class. Make sure to save this information. We will also send a reminder email about 48 hours prior to the class time with that same information. \nLayout of the class\nThe class will begin promptly at the time listed. If for some reason you cannot attend one of the sessions\, don’t worry! They will be recorded and you will be able to watch them at your leisure! During each class\, you are welcome to type in questions in the Question box if you have specific questions as they are asked. We will do our best to answer those questions\, but if not\, feel free to ask them at the end. \n“You Are Being Recorded” (And Other Note Related Items)\nWe will be recording this class! The video will be available for download about 24-hours after the class for all attendees\, so don’t worry about taking unending notes. We will send this link attendees to download and rewatch at any time. In addition to this\, we will generally send out a PDF of the presentation (when applicable) and handouts on the topic. If handouts and PDFs are included\, we will send it out with the link for the video. \nNo online classes should be shared and cannot be shared in a public environment\, including with camera clubs\nThe online content is the copyright of Hunt’s Photo Education and/or the Instructor.

This is the night BEFORE the workshop begins. \nAfter dinner we will walk along the shore of Lake Hood looking for waterfowl and moose so have your camera gear with you and ready to go. Lake Hood is North America’s busiest sea plane base so we are sure to see many sea planes coming and going during our walk as well. \nDay 2\nJuly 1\, 2021 \nRecommended Breakfast is at Gwennie’s Old Alaska Restaurant 4333 Spenard Rd\, Anchorage. Gwennie’s is easy walking distance from the hotels and opens at 6:00 AM. Breakfast is on your own. \n7:30 AM: We will meet at Iliamna Air Taxi’s Terminal\, 6231 S Airpark Pl. Anchorage AK 99502. (907) 334-9845 \nWe board the 9 passenger Pilatus PC-12 Aircraft for the one hour flight to the village of Iliamna where we will be met by the Staff of Jacques Adventure Lodge and transported to the lodge to get checked into our rooms. \nAfter check in everyone will gather in the main lodge for a mandatory safety orientation. Next\, everyone is individually fitted with state of the art Gore-Tex waders and wading boots\, all supplied by the lodge. Waders give us the ability to remain perfectly dry sitting on wet tundra or crossings creeks. The gear is lightweight\, comfortable for all-day wear\, and impervious to the weather! After a hearty lunch we will board the lodge’s float planes and our wilderness adventures begin! We will fly out to Brooks Falls where the grizzly bears provide plenty of opportunity to capture iconic images as they fish for salmon. At 7:00 PM we fly back to the lodge where the staff is waiting to serve us dinner. After dinner Don Toothaker will help with editing questions\, discussion\, and necessary information for the morning. \nDay 3\nJuly 2\, 2021 \nToday we are heading to black sand beaches of the Bering Sea. Our goal is to photograph walrus\, sea otters\, and caribou. This involves flying in a specialized bush plane on giant tundra tires and landing on the beach. One of the main things that sets this trip apart from any other is the diverse aircraft fleet always at our disposal. Capable of landing on rivers\, lakes\, beaches\, gravel bars and ridge tops. The planes paired with 10 boats\, all set aside for our exclusive use brings an unparalleled access to wildlife and landscape. \nDay 4\nJuly 3\, 2021 \nToday\, we leave early in the morning in float planes for the Katmai coast. The mission for today: photographing bears digging for clams and eating sedge grasses. Here\, it is also common to see a wolf walking the river bank and tidal flats or just napping in the sedge grasses meadows. The entire day is spent with a background of a steaming volcano partly covered by glaciers. For lunch\, you are spoiled by the pilot with a field cooked meal\, consisting of shrimp jambalaya cooked over an open fire. And to fill in the cracks\, hot Dutch oven baked cornbread. A 45-minute flight back to the lodge will fly you low over the glaciers and ice fields of Mount Douglas. And of course\, a hot shower\, Hors d’Oeuvres\, dinner\, and fellowship at the lodge will follow. \nDay 5\nJuly 4\, 2021 \nToday\, we leave the lodge arriving on the Katmai coast\, landing on the beach in a tundra tired wheel plane\, just in time for low tide. The mission for today: photographing bears digging for clams and eating sedge grasses with the glaciers and ice fields of Mount Douglas in the background. Here\, it is also common to see a wolf on or near our secluded beach. Today may require more walking than other days\, because the bears may be spread out along the tidal flats\, or napping in the sedge grasses. On the 40-minute flight back to the lodge we fly low over salt water estuaries and tidal flats. As always hot shower\, Hors d’Oeuvres\, dinner\, and fellowship will follow. \nDay 6\nJuly 6\, 2021 \nToday\, we fly by float planes to Twin Lakes in Lake Clark National Park to view and photograph the Dick Proenneke log cabin. (One Man’s Wilderness). Lots of photo ops while flying over the turquoise water of Lake Clark\, In the high Alpine mountain passes view Dall sheep\, caribou\, and the glaciers of Lake Clark National Park. The plane will touch down on Upper Twin Lake a mere 100 yards from the historic homestead site built by Dick Proenneke. The history is well documented and preserved by the Park Service. You will find no shortage of subjects to keep your camera clicking through the day. On the flight home the pilot a lifelong Alaskan lands at the Dena’ina Gghayi Indian Village population of 32. He has family ties here with the village elders. \nThe Dena’ina Gghayi Clan are a proud independent people that have inhabited the area since the end of the last ice age. Dena’ina live a subsistence life\, based on salmon\, berries\, edible plants\, moose\, birds and the unique fresh water seals that live in the lake. The Denaina coexists with the giant bears that also live here. We tour of the village\, see the traditional smoke house\, and learn the way salmon are prepared. Return to the lodge in time to transfer to Iliamna Airport for our flight back to Anchorage. Arriving in Anchorage by 8:00 PM. \nDay 7\nJuly 7\, 2021 \nFlights home begin depending upon traveler and destination URL:https://ebay.huntsphoto.com/calendar/hunts-photo-adventure-alaska-grizzly-bears-and-landscapes/ CATEGORIES:Hunt's Photo Adventures,Instructor: Don T.

To become better photographers\, it helps to understand this by creating the printed image as a final product\, which is the purpose behind the Printed Vision Series.\nEach Printed Vision topic will meet for two sessions. In the first session\, we will discuss the topic and elaborate on editing with examples. This will include discussion of exposure\, dynamic range and color\, but also deeper points\, such as noise reduction\, image sharpening and grain. In between sessions 1 and 2\, attendees will independently process 1-2 images and submit them to the instructor for printing. We will print one of the two images leading into the second session and discuss some of the challenges we face in printing them.\nYou do not need to produce a new image for this class and can go into your archives to print\, but you are welcome to go out into the field and create something new based on the topic! \nThis Month’s Printed Vision Session: Printing Nightscapes\nNightscapes can be some of the most beautiful images when printed. They possess not only deep\, rich blacks that shine through on the paper\, but also high levels of contrast and can also present an incredible level of rich color. There’s a lot to be proud of when hanging a Nightscape on our wall!\nIn this session\, we will delve into printing nightscapes\, including different paper options\, what details to look for when choosing an image\, and elements of image processing. Specifically\, we’ll look at details such image sharpening\, noise reduction\, grain\, exposure\, and color management. Our instructional online presentation will be held on July 7th from 7-8pm and we will reconvene for our Printed Image Review on July 21st from 7-8:30pm. You will have that time period in between to photograph and/or edit your images. In the end\, you will receive a 12×18″ print on fine art paper. (Please note: The cost of a 12×18 or 13×19 print on fine art paper is $35-$40; the cost of this class includes the cost of that print!)\nThe Printed Vision classes are an excellent opportunity to learn more about not only about printing\, but also the processing of images at a much more focused level. Recommended for everyone: Beginners to Advanced Photographers. Come join us for a lot of fun! \nReceiving Your Print\nAfter the class\, your print can either be mailed to you or picked up at one of our Hunt’s Photo store locations. \nRegistering and what is needed\nAfter you register for this class\, you will receive a confirmation email that will include information about how to access the online class\, including an online ID code that you will need to get into the class.

Have you had your camera for 6 months\, a year or more and want to take better pictures? Are you putting your camera away because you just don’t see the difference between your expensive camera and your smart phone?\n\nLearn to fully utilize your cameras potentials! Harness your creative power with photography!\n\nThis is one of the first classes to consider when you’re getting started with your Digital SLR or Mirrorless camera. We will discuss Exposure (how light works with the camera)\, the Big Three Settings (Aperture\, Shutter Speed\, & ISO)\, how they affect your picture and how to set them\, and what mode to set it to on your camera! We’ll discuss changing depth-of-field (controlling what’s in focus in the background\, stopping or blurring the action in your scene\, and many other basic picture-taking techniques. We recommend taking this class prior to Digital Photography Basics 2\, which is the next logical step!\n\nJoin us to start learning about Digital Photography!\n\nRegistering and what is needed\nAfter you register for this class\, you will receive a confirmation email that will include information about how to access the online class\, including an online ID code that you will need to get into the class.
