recommend a Photography Course

rubyblues

Hi
Im looking for a photography course ( prefer nighttime) and to see if any one can recommend one in Dublin. I have an interest in photography and have a canon 450d camera for the past few years. I know a few of the settings but thats about it.
Thanks alot

Dublin Camera Club run courses twice a year in their Camden Street (Lower) premises. They start in January and September and run for 10 consecutive weeks with two sets of classes (6.30 and 8.30pm) on Wednesday nights. Courses cost approx. €100. For a small additional fee students can become full members of the club (its about €35 - normal membership is €100).

From what I have heard the course is well regarded although I have not been on it myself (I am a member of Dublin Camera Club so I must be a bit biased).

Great thanks for the advice. I just missed the Dcc course. Ill take a look and see if i can get anything before September. Would you need to do the course before joining the club?
Thanks

GCD does an excellent dip in it, covers everything, alot of film to get your basics right

No, you can join any Tuesday evening. It would be cheaper to book course and join at same time - saves about €65 (you might be able to join and pay for sept course now).

Great thanks, I might look for a camera club closer to home. im in Firhouse., I heard there is one in Tallaght. Would you know of any other on south side? Definitly geared up for this now! Was visiting a new gallery beside kilmainham jail today called D Gallery so its got me inspired.
Thanks

Phone Old Bawn school and see if they are doing the photography course next September. Think it was Tuesday and Thursday evenings.

That sounds perfect for me, pity I missed the start date. Any other recommendations that would start sooner?
