Brief history of photography

      If you want to do a 4th day I can guide you to a photogenic area of your choice for the day.

      Apply what you learned in the class to the real world with me by your side to answer all your questions.

       These could include a National Park Hike, Waterfalls, Hill tribes, Temples, Markets or a festival if one is happing.

You can choose to have just one or two days of classes and a tour also.  You could skip the classes and choose to just have a tour and ask all your questions in the field.
