Great photography, like a tranquilizer net, captures subjects without harming their essence. Learn how to humanely corral memories with today's Groupon: for $95, you get a two-hour one-on-one photography lesson at Made in Murfreesboro (a $200 value). Students can visit this site to schedule one of four individual class options specially crafted for Groupon customers, which include basic digital photography, Photoshop and Photoshop Elements, studio lighting, and improving your online presence.
Made in Murfreesboro's photography instructor and chief photographer Titus Bartos fuses his expertise and passion to develop others' artistic skills through photography classes. The advanced photography class enables students to explore digital SLR photography as well as learn how to properly operate each camera's complex organs and sticky ignition. Meanwhile, students seeking to gussy up their stills can take courses on Photoshop Elements or Photoshop CS4 and above (depending on which software the student owns). Each workshop instructs amateur editors on dressing up pics with professional-looking histograms, layers, masking, and spirit gum.
Alternately, the studio-lighting workshop teaches lens tamers how to employ spectrum science with different equipment and techniques. For experienced shutterbugs seeking to enter the professional sphere, the branding workshop includes a review of the student's portfolio, advice in building website presence, and how to deal with temperamental pet rocks.

The Groupon Guide to: Choosing Your Own Adventure
Thanks to electronic readers and the recent discovery of free will, traditional fiction is increasingly giving way to futuristic hyperfiction that places you in the driver's seat of a book. Uninitiated readers can start activating their adventure synapses with this excerpt from the popular You Live It! series of interactive novels, Escape From Smugglers' Cove.
Page 26: Blind Darby and his assistant with a hook for a hand carry a bag of loot into their smugglers' shack. Your grandfather always warned you not to follow smugglers.
- If you follow the smugglers into their shack, turn to page 32.
- If you hop onto your motorbike to go find Chief McCullough, turn to page 17.
- If you place the old amulet into the swamp in order to raise Swampman to wreak his muddy vengeance on the smugglers, turn to page 9.
Page 32: You deftly creep into the foyer of the candlelit crime shack. The smugglers seem to be gone, but they have left the computer on. You play around on Facebook for a while.
Page 17: You hightail it down the gravel road before realizing that Chief McCullough is on vacation. You pull over and play around on your phone for a while.
Page 9: Instead of doing the thing you chose, you head home to see what's on TV. During a long commercial break you pull out your phone and play around on Facebook for a while.
