Photography Resources

With the advent of the ubiquitous smart phone and no-cost image editing on computers, you can now incorporate photography into any classroom.

Posting student images on a  class web site or a photo sharing site allows involvement of fellow students, friends and parents. You can do this for any subject, not just art & photography.

Learning the “tricks of the trade” from experts will help your students gain a mastery of this powerful communications medium.
