Tamron Teaching Program
Ken
Hubbard (NY) How to Improve your Travel and Landscape Photography: Choosing the
Right Lens
Geared to photographers who
want to learn to take better images of the subjects that mean the most to them. This seminar will take you from the first
steps of choosing what lens to use to evaluating your scene all the way to the
final output in print. Ken will also
discuss how to make the most of a somewhat less than ideal situation, such as
shooting in the middle of the day, and distracting elements in a scene. This
seminar is meant to improve your images from a quick snapshot to gallery
worthy. (B, I)
