Photography Merit Badge AM (Ages 11 to 17)

Event Details

 

Learn the terms, proper techniques, skills, and compositions for taking photographs. Take pictures of sights around the Bay as you travel by pontoon boat. Use your best shots to create a photo journalistic story that you can either mount on poster board or use to create a slide show. Try your hand out our classic film camera and sample a DSLR camera as well. Practice enhancing your photos with Photoshop or similar software. Please bring in your own camera for regular use - smart phone cameras are acceptable but digital SLR cameras or pocket cameras with a viewfinder are recommended if accessible (not a necessary purchase).
