X-WR-CALDESC:Class description: \nJoin us for a 2-hour photography workshop
  designed for adults who want to capture the beauty of the garden with con
 fidence. All cameras and phones are welcome—it’s about learning to see cre
 atively\, not just the gear you use!\n\nWe’ll focus on composition techniq
 ues like the rule of thirds\, leading lines\, framing\, and others\, along
  with tips for working with natural light at different times of day. You’l
 l also get a simple introduction to aperture and shutter speed to better c
 ontrol depth of field and motion. \n\nMost of the workshop will be spent p
 racticing in the garden\, experimenting with angles\, perspectives\, light
 \, and props with plenty of guidance and feedback to help you grow your sk
 ills and leave with photos you’re proud to share.\n\nDATE: Thursday\, Octo
 ber 16\nTIME: 5 - 7 pm\nLOCATION: Rocky Mountain Gardens\, 1075 South Aven
 ue West\nCOST: $25*\n\nAbout the Instructor:\nAlla Ponomareva is a photogr
 aphy instructor with over 15 years of experience exploring a wide range of
  photographic styles and disciplines\, including wildlife\, headshots\, ev
 ents\, lifestyle\, weddings\, couples\, pets\, newborns\, travel\, astroph
 otography\, and creative personal projects like Crystal Ball photography a
 nd self-portraiture. A graduate of The New York Institute of Photography’s
  Professional Photography Certification program\, she continues to learn a
 nd practice almost daily. For Alla\, photography is more than a creative o
 utlet—it’s a lifelong companion that has traveled with her across continen
 ts and through every chapter of life\, capturing moments of joy and offeri
 ng healing through the lows.\n\nIn addition to photography\, Alla finds gr
 ounding in gardening\, where getting her hands in the dirt brings a sense 
 of calm\, presence\, and connection to the natural world. She loves docume
 nting the growth stages of plants\, observing different species\, bugs\, a
 nd critters\, and using the garden as both a classroom and a canvas. For h
 er\, gardening and photography go hand-in-hand—both invite patience\, curi
 osity\, and a chance to flex her creative muscle while deepening her appre
 ciation for the beauty in everyday life.\n\nSee Alla's work and offerings
