Wildlife World
Zoo in Litchfield Park and nearby classroom
Take creative control
of your photographs by learning how to make your camera do
what you want it to do. This great new workshop combines
the best of both worlds: an informative class in the fundamentals
of photography, with the ability to go into the field to use
your newly-learned skills.
Join long-time Arizona
Highways contributor and former picture editor, J.
Peter Mortimer, Friday evening from 6-8pm for an instructional
session where you'll learn about exposure, lens openings,
shutter speed and how basic camera functions work. Then put
those lessons to the test on Saturday, where you'll have the
chance to photograph at the Wildlife World Zoo under his watchful
eye. Ask questions. Experiment. You'll then head into a classroom
session where Peter will critique the morning efforts of those
using digital cameras. He'll
discuss what's successful in the photographs and what elements
need improvement, giving you even more tools to work with
the next time you go out photographing.
After this one session,
you'll see improvement in your pictures and your camera manual
will start to make sense!

the specific suggestions ... but also for the extraordinarily

Policy & Guidelines

TIP: For some reason we always want to take pictures horizontally
from eye level. Sometimes this works well. But more often
than not, a low angle or a high angle shot both as a vertical
and horizontal makes for a much more interesting picture.
