Want to try your hand at High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography? Not sure how to begin, or what to do once you’ve taken the photos? Photographer Melissa L. Jones will offer tips on how to photograph HDR, then she’ll show you how to process your images through one of the top HDR processing programs, Nik Collection’s HDR Efx Pro. Learn how to adjust your images to give them the exact artistic style you’re seeking, and get some tips on how to bring out the details with out overdoing it.

If you spend some time with Greg Disch, he might ask you what you want to do with your images. If you have not figured it out, your answer will drift off. None of us can print all of our images that we like. Or hang them.

Come learn some of the simple (and not so simple) things you can do to do with the end results of your hours of fun and work. We will learn at least three different solutions that may appeal to you.

One will be a hands-on creation of a “photobook” from start to finish. Lots of do’s and don’ts from the school of hard knocks.
