SCHEDULE
Each week for four weeks we will post your lesson online to be downloaded. Questions concerning the lesson can be posted for your instructor to answer. After you understand the lesson, the fun begins. All will be sent out for an assignment shoot. Upon returning and performing your darkroom work, you will upload your assignment photos to be skillfully and professionally critiqued. No worries, Simon is banned! Trust me, not only is this fun, but it is the power behind workshops.
