Join Hunt’s Photo Education for sunset walk at Ft. Williams Park and Portland Head Light. Initially developed under the orders of George Washington in 1787, Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth is an easily recognizable lighthouse on the shores of Maine, now on the National Registry of Historical Places.  As with many lighthouses along the shores of the Atlantic, Portland Head Light is a picturesque location and a must-see for photographers of all levels.

On the walk, we will work on landscapes, long exposures, HDR, and focus bracketing.  We will also use filters to enhance our scene as the sun sets. Bring a tripod, shutter release, and filters if you have them!
