How does photography present you, the learner? What you you do with photography? 
It is important to be safe online so we will review what is appropriate and how to achieve safety.
Part of the experience will be for each student to shoot photographs before the next class. I will give specific assignments like, use color to create a great shot, or find something in the environment and take a photo that expresses what you think about the subject. I will then review each students work at every session.  The emphasis will be on creative feedback and encouragement.
