Happy New Year! Time to invest in learning Lightroom 5

Start the New Year out right by signing up to learn how to get the most out of your photography using Adobe Lightroom 5.





Lightroom 5 is the premier photo editing software for Windows and Macintosh.  The price of the software has come down significantly and is only $109 on Amazon.com.  You can download a 30 day evaluation copy directly from Adobe if you want to try before you buy.  You won't find a Lightroom class with 8 hours of instruction anywhere for as low as $25.

Call Eastman Recreation at (423)229-3771 to register for this class.  Space is limited to 30 students so don't delay.   Contact Richard Siggins if you have questions.

Iceland: Land of Fire and Ice by Chris Duncan

Aurora Borealis

The first Travelogue of 2014

 

Iceland: Land of Fire and Ice

by

Chris Duncan


Visit one of the most fascinating and photogenic locations on earth—a stunning location with dramatic landscapes featuring glaciers, glacial lagoons, geysers, waterfalls and one of the most volcanically active areas of the earth. You have to see a display of the Aurora Borealis in person to believe how mesmerizing and spectacular it is—a waving, mystical apparition. View some of Iceland’s wildlife. In particular, the Iceland horse, a unique breed adapted to withstand the harsh climate so close to the Artic Circle. All this and photographic techniques unique to capturing this special place.
