The educational program response-Photography class to better learn how to take pictures and edit them. 


The participants/target audience-Any agriculture based operator who wanted to take better pictures for their operation


Other partners (if applicable)


Program impact or participant response- Six participants attended our photography work shop.  All 6 brought their cameras and were taught how to make setting adjustments, focus and frame their subjects, and what kind of lens would work best for their specific needs.   All 6 said they were going to use the skills they learned to for better pictures of their agriculture products.  Editing photos were also discussed.  5 of the 6 participants, one already had the app,  downloaded an app that was recommended so they could make their pictures even better.   Basic editing techniques were learn by all participants.
