Ian'stalk is titled, "Beyond the Rule of Thirds: Composing Landscape and Wildlife Images" The venerable "Rule of Thirds" is often the first composition guideline that photographers learn, but too often it is also the last. Ian will present a program about the art of landscape and wildlife composition, discussing several techniques that will allow you to take your photographs beyond the Rule of Thirds. Ian will show images from around the country to illustrate the techniques he discusses. Ian will also have available copies of his books and calendars for sale and signing. Ian and his wife will be joining us for dinner at Chili's, located at 8051 Leesburg Pike, behind Tiffany & Co., and YOU'RE INVITED!
