Veteran Photographer Shares Spark With Students Jim Morgenthaler has been teaching photography for 35 years and has been involved with digital photography for the last 20 years. He bought his first Nikon when stationed in Korea in the Air Force. Exploring Korea and Japan with that camera sparked the interest in photography that continues to this day. Jim has been teaching for the Professional and Personal Development program at the Georgia Center for Continuing Education in the seven years since his retirement from the University of Georgia. During his worklife at UGA, Jim produced educational video, film, computer graphics and still photography. Jim regularly teaches "Fundamentals of Photography," "Taking Better Pictures," "Basic Digital Photography" and "Photoshop" and he has been instrumental in leading the way in developing the Photography Certificate Program. When teaching adults at the Georgia Center, Jim illustrates his instructions with hundreds of his own photographs. He encourages classroom participation from his students and provides many pages of valuable informational notes and handouts. Jim has produced a three-disc set of video tutorials that are available for purchase. The accompanying shots are from a recent trip to Greece and the islands of Santorini and Mykonos.
