The lure of travel is surpassed only by the inevitable desire to bring home pictures and share your adventures. Since the late 1800s when George Eastman produced the first traveling camera with the slogan, "You press the button, we do the rest," travel and photography have been eternally joined. With the added benefits of digital photography so readily available to consumers today, the field is full of new opportunities and new challenges.

This course will address the special needs and techniques digital photographers need to capture scenes from around the world and bring them home. We’ll focus on specific tips for digital photographers, and how to use both traditional techniques as well as those unique to digital equipment.
