Re: NGS Photography Workshops

[SteveS <sgshiya@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have heard good things about this workshop.  The main thing learned, 
according to those I know who participated, seems to be how to underexpose 
transparancy film, meter for the highlights.  A contradictory method to 
Ansel Adams Zone system.  It would be interesting to know how they teach 
with electronic cameras, now.
