This is a popular 5 week course taught by professional photographers Jill Flyer and Luis Mancera McCormick, co-owners of Galeria Quattro in Ajijic . Their work is shown here at Lakeside and in other areas of Mexico, as well as in the United States.
Material covered in the classes includes:

How to operate your camera and all its options
-
A history of photography via a slide show
-
Understanding of how cameras work via apertures and shutters
-
How to use manual controls on a camera (most cameras have override manual controls). When to use your automatic settings and when to use manual controls.
-
How to shoot a moving subject
-
Discussion of lenses and megapixels
-
Compositional exercises in the field

Students are given specific assignments "in the field" and there are always two instructors to give advice and hands-on instruction. Later, each person's work is projected on a screen, so that students can all learn from each other and the goal is to provide constructive commentary to each person's work. It´s a fun class and a fun way to learn photography.
