=Mr. Germann's "[|Basics of Photography] " Prezi.=

**Philosophy and Rationale** Every day people are bombarded by photographic images. A better understanding of the skills and equipment used to create images can enrich the lives of students. Students enrolled in Photographics 10, Photography 20, 30 will have the opportunity to learn about the evolution of photography from pin hole to digital cameras, experiment with equipment and materials used to produce still photographs, and develop a critical awareness of good photographic techniques. The field of photography can lead to a variety of employment opportunities and to a very satisfying personal interest. -[|Evergreen Curriculum]
