Delivery/Location: Fort Collins
This course is offered through the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at Colorado State University. You must be a member of Osher to enroll in this course.
Join Denver Botanic Gardens' official photographer, Scott Dressel-Martin, for a morning of photography at the Gardens. Scott’s beautiful photographs are featured on the Gardens’ website and in its award-winning newsletter.
Get professional tips on how to make the most of Denver’s gorgeous urban oasis. Through his creative demonstrations and extensive individual attention, Scott will ensure that you are in the right place at the right time and learn how best to capture the beauty of a flower, woodland vignette, or meadow landscape.
After a relaxed lunch in the gardens, we will travel to CSU’s Denver Learning Center computer lab for a hands-on session in which Scott will demonstrate how to digitally optimize your photographs using inexpensive or free software programs so your photographs will always look their best.
You should be familiar with your camera prior to this class. Both digital and film users welcome.
