It was an excellent attempt at dealing with individuals with different cameras & levels of knowledge. The instructor did the best he could. I give him my highest personal thanks.
Now, I’ve got a 230 page manual to get through. My wife was told by the camera shop that the camera was a “point & shoot”…blatant misrepresentation, none of which is the responsibility of your group. Nonetheless, now to work.

Scott did a great job explaining the cameras. I learned a lot about my camera as this is my first dslr. When we took some pictures his patience was greatly appreciated ( he had to explain to me where to find the adjustments again) I liked seeing the results from the different apertures, when using exposure compensation and panning to get movement in a photograph. I thoroughly enjoyed the class. Thanks again Scott!

I really enjoy Scott's classes. I always feel inspired to get out take photos and work with them. I got many tips and knowledge of when to use certain tools. Scott is excellent at conveying ideas and has such a willingness to share. His photos are amazing. I hope I can reach his level one day.
Afterwardss, I played with some of my landscape photos using his suggestions and tips.

It met the stated objectives. Got practical training and experience in this type of photography in an interesting area. It helped me to see bigger pattern elements than I was used to thinking or seeing.
