Graham Recreation & Parks invites participants to a hands-on smartphone photography workshop this fall. Learn simple techniques and helpful apps to capture high-quality images of trees, plants, and natural landscapes using your smartphone. While exploring the Longmeadow Trailhead, participants will search for and photograph letter shapes found in nature, formed by branches, leaves, and natural features, while building creative photography skills in celebration of the Haw River Trail’s 20th anniversary.

No prior photography experience is needed; just bring a fully charged smartphone and a sense of curiosity. Elizabeth Larson of Elizabeth Larson Photography will lead the workshop. No rain date.
