So, I just finished my class. It went well. I brought a projector to show my example images.
It went really well I think. They had lots of questions. I am glad I did a little preparation about archiving and printing, they had lots of questions about that particularly.
I assume my information was good because a lot of the women were madly taking notes about what I said.
One of the questions a woman asked was why her camera wouldn't focus on her baby, was the baby too wiggly, was the focus broke? After I asked her a few questions it dawned on me. I said, do you hear the lens go "zzzz zzzz zzzz" before it takes the picture? YES she said. I explained she was too close and how her camera was having a hard time focusing because it was out of the focus range and to move back and zoom in. She was so excited that I figured it out.
Another lady brought some prints she had taken. After the class she came up and asked me to critique them. We talked awhile and she seemed so grateful that I took the time. Her images were really good and she beamed when I showed her where to crop one of them (above the joint) and that she needed to print it big and hang it on her wall.
