Choose Between Two Options

  • $49 for a three-hour Composition in the Field photography workshop for one (a $99 value)
  • $89 for the above workshop for two (a $198 value)

Composition in the Field workshops don’t just introduce students to the technical aspects of their cameras, such as shutter speed, aperture, ISO, and other settings—they focus on changing the way these budding photographers see the world from behind the lens. After an instruction on camera controls, students take to the field at an indoor or outdoor locale, accompanied by a professional photographer who teaches techniques and tips for capturing powerful images. He or she teaches students how to manipulate natural light and how to use shutter speed to make it seem as though subjects are a whirlwind of motion.

Upcoming photo ops include capturing the blooming flowers and vegetation of the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden in winter, immortalizing the street art and trendy passersby in Deep Ellum, and seeking snapshots amid the hustle and bustle of the historic Dallas farmers’ market. Participants should bring their own digital camera and any other equipment, such as a tripod, to their picturesque locale. Check out the full schedule for more information.

Digital Photo Academy

As memory cards replaced film reels, many photographers—both professional and amateur—felt befuddled by the new technology. That's where Digital Photo Academy stepped in. Since 2007, the business has facilitated workshops that explore all aspects of digital imagery, from operating cameras and uploading digital files to editing images and airbrushing realistic mustaches. Seasoned professionals lead the courses, helping understudies hone their use of light, framing, and timing. Students furnish their own cameras, and can tote along any ancillary equipment such as tripods, laptops, and flashes that relate to the course at hand.

The Groupon Guide to: Finding a Thing of Money

Although everyone gets out of bed each day hoping that today will be the day they finally happen upon a life-altering thing of unclaimed money, finding a thing of money actually comes with intractable legal and ethical ramifications. What steps must you take before you have legal and moral right to a found thing of money?

• Alert the police that you have found a thing of money. Give them your phone number in the event that someone reports that exact size of a thing of money missing. Do not give them your name.

• Hang fliers around the area where you found the thing of money. Fliers about a free thing of money will likely attract ne'er-do-wells, so instead, have the fliers read: “Found: an item. Could be good, could be bad. Can you prove you lost something by guessing what I have found? We shall see.”

• At the end of 30 days, if you feel fairly confident you have done everything humanly possible to find the thing of money’s original owner, go to your nearest charity. Dump half of the money into the charity’s mail slot. The remainder of the money is yours to keep, you good-hearted citizen.
