Yellowstone Academy's Photo Club-Halloween Project!

It has been a while since I've posted about my class at Yellowstone, so I thought I'd make a quick post with our Halloween Project this year.  I've got a new class this school year with 7 new students, and they are eager to learn about photography.  We'll be meeting Monday afternoons this year, and Yellowstone has moved to an all year calendar, so the students are currently on Fall break.  Before they left for Fall break, I wanted to introduce some concepts dealing with shutter speed, but I didn't want to get into too much, as long breaks can lead to forgetfulness.  So, I came up with an idea to take some spooky Halloween photos of our class, and use slow shutter speeds and double exposures to achieve ghostly effects!  All of the students will return to school on Halloween day, so they will come back to Photo Club's terrifying 1st show of the year!

Chris...these photos are just the best! Bill Blackstone forwarded them to me...and others involved in mentoring at Yellowstone. It is so inspiring to know these students have you as not only a teacher...but a mentor...and without a doubt, they will become better students and individuals because of you.
God bless you and THANK YOU!
