JACKSON CALENDAR: LIBRARY WILL HOLD PHOTO WORKSHOPS

Riverside Regional Library will hold a series of two workshops on basic photography at the main facility at 204 S. Union in Jackson.

The workshops will be Feb. 29 and March 14, both at 7 p.m. The first workshop will be for those with "point and shoot" cameras. The lens cannot be changed and aperture and shutter speed cannot be set.

The second workshop will be for those using single lens reflex cameras. Lenses can be changed, apertures and shutter speeds can be set. Both photo workshops will focus on using different film speeds, composition of subject, ways to improve lighting and discovering what each camera can and cannot do.

Each workshop will feature an hour of lecture and an hour of questions and answers. Those attending should bring their cameras without film in them. Workshops will be presented by Jim Bequette of Cape Girardeau.
