Kentucky State University's Small Farm Program and Beginning Farmer Project, in collaboration with the University of Kentucky 4H agent Christy Martin of Russell County, worked together to form a photography club for 4H and clover buds students.
4H clients met once a month to learn the proper techniques for photography. A few subjects covered were the rule of thirds, foreground, background techniques, and focus. After class discussion, the participants photographed agriculture subjects, and we discussed how to improve the images.
