US Student Photos Exhibited at Bartlett Arboretum

Mark Macrides
An exhibit of photographs from the Fall trimester 8th & 9th grade Digital Photography Class is now hanging at the Bartlett Arboretum, a 93-acre nature preserve located in North Stamford. Please join us for an opening reception of the exhibit on Sunday, March 8 from 2-4 p.m.
The work is a sample of a ten-week elective course. The focus of the class was to improve students’ skills with the camera as well as with digital editing techniques. Assignments around topics such as abstraction, shadow, reflection, and water encouraged students to be more aware of the camera as a tool to capture what the eye sees and interprets. Editing lessons created opportunities to improve an image or abstract it further depending upon the assignment. At the end of the trimester, students completed a final project on a topic of their choice.
