Are you looking to get better with your digital camera? Want that better selfie? Are you a bit of a shutterbug looking to meet other shutterbugs?
Digital Wandering is an event where learning meets social. Each event we travel to a new awesome photogenic spots around the Bay Area and learn aspects of digital photography. At one event we may be learning about flower photography in Golden Gate Park, while at the next event we may be snapping candid urban pictures in the Mission. You'll learn from professional photographers and from people who have experience teaching at colleges and universities around the Bay Area. The event is a heaping spoonful of learning mixed in with a generous splash of social fun and a sprinkle of history, all swirled together for a fun experience!
Tickets are $30 per session
