A ZONE Photography Class, was held on March 29th at the St. James Community Center, with Instructor Stefano Sagri. This was a hands on workshop with 7 students who learned how best to determine exposure using the Zone technique. Steve provided examples along with a slide presentation. He then took the class outside where they got a chance to practice their newly learned information using their own cameras. Check out the slideshow below from the workshop!
