House Keeping Notes

 

House Keeping Notes

  • This year we may have 10+ participants.   It is imperative that when we get to a location that you move quickly to get your camera equipment out and be ready to shoot. We are on a tight time frame to get to all the locations per session.
     

  • If you are using a tripod, do you really need to fold it up?  If not, leave it fully or partly extended.
     

  • If you know ahead of time, you will not be able to make one of the sessions, please let Bob S know, so we will not be waiting on you.  If something happens the day before or the day of the shoot, please call Bob S at (864) -430-0119 (c) and leave a message.
     

  • If you drive to a location, we want everyone photographing together.  So if you get there before one of the Instructors, just wait on us. 
     

  • Some locations, there maybe limited parking, so we may have to car pool.
     

  • Something I always mention in my photo workshops is if you are thinking about buying any new equipment (Camera, Tripod, etc)  Look at what others are using and ask questions
     
  • We have a large variety of skills sets with in this class, so when we come around and ask if you need any help, if you are a experience photographer and don’t need any, just say I am fine or something like that.
    • We definitely do not want to bug you.
    •    For you new photographers, if you need help, please ask for it while we are in the field.  That is what we are there for.
       
  • If by chance it rains on one of our photo shoots, we will meet here in the Herring Center and have an indoor Macro Shoot

 

·      Student Photos

  • We would like for each student to turn in one from each week to Bob Buurman
  • Please do this on our last class (Week 5).
  • Format them to 2048 pixels on the long side
     
  • Turn them in on a CLEAN Flash Drive
    • Clean means that there will be nothing else on the drive
       
  • Bob Buurman will lead the discussion on each slide and we all will give a short critique
     

If for some reason you can not submit your photos on a flash drive, bring your camera with the card still in it and we will try to download the photos for you.

  • If you are using a phone camera, bring any cables you have that you use with your phone.
