Create Beautiful Photography

Students sign up for photography for various reasons. Sometimes they want an easy and even fun credit. Some students have actually seen the effect memorable images have in our current media.  And some students have become aware of the wide range of career choices that embrace photographic skills.   Others might just want to take better shots for posting on social media. Or perhaps they just have a thirst to learn. People may have told you you have a knack....and you want to be able to come up with something really neat to prove them right.

So what does it take to create beautiful photography?  Here you will find many opinions.  Click Here to see what Ken Rockwell thinks. What do you think? Is he right? Or do you think it's something different?
