Date: July 13, 2007

Volunteer Catherine Cardarelli will be leading photography workshops at Devils Tower National Monument on July 27 and 28. Two 1 1/2 hours sessions will be given each day.  The morning introduction to photography workshop begins at 10:00 am and will discuss how to take better pictures by looking at f-stop, shutter speed, ISO, beginning light and beginning framing. An optional one-half hour critique will follow. The afternoon intermediate workshop will begin at 2:00 pm and will concentrate on image design, using frame, using horizon line and in depth lighting.

 

Catherine is a Professor of Photography at the Savannah College of Art & Design. She has been teaching for seven years, and has been a professional photographer for seventeen years. The park staff and community welcome Catherine back for her third summer. She will be conducting another workshop at Devils Tower in August.

 

Workshop participants will meet at the visitor center, and will need to bring a digital or film camera. Those using film will need one or two rolls of ISO 100 color slide or color print film.  Participants are invited to bring existing photos for the critique sessions. These workshops are free with the $10/vehicle admission fee into the monument. For more information on the workshop or how to become a volunteer, call the Devils Tower Visitor Center at 307-467-5283 ext. 635.

Did You Know?
Eradication programs have reduced the black-tailed prairie dog’s range from thousands of square miles to a few scattered preserves like this one at Devils Tower National Monument. They now inhabit about 2% of the area they once occupied 200 years ago.
