CHADS FOOD HUT CHADS FCQD PUT i; ft SUSCs avian photography class this spring. Avian photo class proves popular This quarter a new class for students interested in photographing wildlife was offered and proved to be very successful to all involved, said Richard Dotson, an instructor in the life sciences and engineering departments. Dotson, one of five teachers for the course, said that the objective of this class is to give the students the expertise required to take professional wildlife pictures. The other four teachers are Boyd Redington, Dave Jensen, Paul Burgoyne and Lyn Chamberlain. According to Dotson, these men donated much of their free time to instruct the students in the fundamentals of photography. Some of these fundamentals were depth of field, film speed, composition and telephoto lenses. Bird behavior was another important aspect covered. After several weeks of instruction and preparation, which included building their own portable bird blinds, the class set out on an overnight field trip to test the skills they learned in the classroom. The first stop on this excursion was at Minersville Reservoir where the students could had a Dutch oven dinner. Early the next morning they went to the drumming grounds of the sage grouse just west of Minersville to observe and photograph the male grouse perform his mating dance. Later that day they headed to Clear Lake bird refuge just south of Delta. Many class members said they felt that this field trip proved to be very fruitful and everyone got his or her share of good pictures. When there was film to be developed, Jensen instructed the class how to process their own slides and put together a slide show. According to Dotson, most of the students have spent many hours in the field practicing their skills of photographing wild birds, as well as in the lab processing their film and preparing a slide show. Dotson said the students have put together an excellent slide show to presented to the public. The presentation will be in the Thorley Recital Hall at 7 p.m., Tuesday, May 31.
