The class size is limited to 25 individuals and is designed for beginning photographers ages 18 and over.
Fall Session Two will focus on learning skills to better develop your photos, once you have taken them, to maximize their quality. During this session, we will spend some classroom time on the art and skill of digital processing and organization. Using photos Brian took during previous sessions as examples, he will show participants how to make digital adjustments to improve the appearance of their photos exposed in a high-contrast, interior museum setting. We will also incorporate time in Rolling Stock Hall to explore equipment as we have done in previous sessions.
Brian will share valuable tips for railroad photographers and have you take part in a photography session in the Museum’s Rolling Stock Hall, where you’ll have the opportunity to examine several pieces of historic railroad equipment -- inside and out -- like the Pennsylvania Railroad GG1 No. 4935, Conrail GP30 No. 2233, Pennsylvania Railroad E44 No. 4465, Pennsylvania Railroad E7 No. 5901 and Pittsburgh & Lake Erie caboose No. 508.
