    I really enjoyed the class. I had taken the Beginners Photography Class previously. This class was the next step for me to work on my photography skills. Rebecca does a great job of explaining composition options to make interesting photos. And the need to change settings to compensate for different lighting and focus situations. She chose a great location for shooting photos for this topic.
