The class will include learning about the basics of photography, all of the different photography categories that are offered through 4-H, and also, what judges are looking for in a photograph. The first session of the class is Monday, July 17, and will be held at the Duck Pond, across from Yankton’s Avera Sacred Heart Hospital. The second session is Wednesday, July 26, and it will be held at the Yankton County Extension Office. To allow for beneficial lighting conditions, the classes will be held later in the day, at 4 p.m., and run until approximately 6 p.m. Each participant is asked to bring their own camera if possible. During the second session, participants will mount photos taken at the first session so they are ready to bring to Achievement Days. Three photos from the first session will be printed for each participant at no cost. If a participant would like more than three photos printed, additional photos will be printed at their own cost. This class is a great way for youth to develop a new hobby they could use for the rest of their lives. Photography helps people think outside the box, become more creative, and see beauty in everyday life. If you have any questions or need more information, contact Yankton County 4H Intern, Abby Steffen, at (605) 665-3387 or yankton4h@gmail.com.
