I am teaming up with master landscape photographer Michael Frye to teach an online class, "Mastering Light & Color: A Deep Dive Into the Process of Creating Landscape Photographs With Emotional Impact." 

Class Overview
Light and color are fundamental components of photography, heavily influencing the composition, mood, and message of an image. Yet these essential elements are often overlooked, or simplified and glossed over. In this session, Michael and I will take you on a deep dive into this vital topic, showing you how to master the subtleties of light and color so that you can create photographs with a strong message and powerful emotional impact.

What you will learn
• How to use light to draw the viewer's eye and tell a story
• Subtle, often overlooked qualities of light that can make a big difference
• In-depth, practical application of color theory in the field and in the digital darkroom
• Recognize and create harmonious color combinations to guide your visual storyRequired materialsCamera, lens, eyes
