Introduction to Photography
Our Introduction to Photography class has evolved out of the Dark Room and into the digital age. Though some may feel that the darkroom experience is beneficial, we felt that it took too much time away from the heart of the class...taking photos. Since students will likely never be required to process negatives and/or print photos, we felt that the time it took to learn the techniques involved was time that could be better spent on composition..
