Save Money on Trey Ratcliff’s Dis­cover the Art of Photography

From today until the end of the month, you can save 20% off the cost of a reg­is­tra­tion for Dis­cover the Art of Pho­tog­ra­phy. Just use the coupon code DiscoverArt20 when you register.

One of the rea­sons I’m happy to share the news about this course is because I think there’s been a lack of foun­da­tion courses for pho­tog­ra­phers. We have plenty of inter­me­di­ate and advanced train­ing, but there are always new users who need to under­stand the basics. You’ll get com­fort­able with your cam­era, learn how to make good com­po­si­tions, develop your own style, orga­nize your pho­tos and delve into post-​processing. It’s a com­plete course to get your started on a life­time of photography.

As I’ve said before, it isn’t the cam­era that cre­ates the art. It’s you. Pho­tog­ra­phy is a skill that any­one can learn. Like any other skill, it’s impor­tant to start with a great foun­da­tion that pre­pares you to grow and explore deeper con­cepts on your own. Dis­cover the Art of Pho­tog­ra­phy is for the begin­ner to inter­me­di­ate photographer.

The 20% dis­count only applies to indi­vid­ual reg­is­tra­tions, not the Bring a Friend pro­mo­tion. That one is already a great deal!

The Captain’s Chair

I must be the only one who didn’t think to sit in the Captain’s chair. It hap­pens. I get so caught up in tak­ing pic­tures and dodg­ing tourists that some­times I for­get to par­tic­i­pate. Not to say I wasn’t hav­ing fun on this set. The lights are crazy in here, com­plete with some rotat­ing strobes that put splashes of color in all the wrong places. Then again, the orig­i­nal Star Trek TV show seemed to have some psy­che­delic light­ing, too. Must’ve been a hor­ri­ble work environment.
