4-H Camp Bristol Hills - Photography Master Camp
Recent studies show that an average of 350 million photos are uploaded to Facebook and another 95 million to Instagram every day! Photography is so much more accessible today than it was in the days of film. Everyone has a camera in their pocket, and we can take more photos of our breakfast than Ansel Adams made in his entire career. But with the ubiquity of photography these days, it’s harder and harder to stand out as a photographer.
If you have a passion for photography, the Master Camp in Photography is the place for you. Facilitated by members of the Finger Lakes Photography Guild, this camp is designed for the camper who has a basic understanding of photography already, but really wants to elevate their skills. Campers will need to bring a camera with interchangeable lenses from home, and be able to adjust basic settings like shutter speed and aperture, white balance and digital ISO. Campers will learn about composition and the exposure triangle, as well as a basic introduction to digital post processing, and finally about framing and matting images for presentation.
The fee for this program is $470 and includes one 8x10 print, along with an 11x14 matte and frame. Campers will present their images in a gallery exhibit at Camp during closing ceremonies.
