Re: photography class ideas sought (for gardenwriters)

Rich,

This seems really basic, but I always struggle with it...either digital or 
35mm...how to adjust the camera so the image is centered.  I've 
never figured it out so I just take extra photos until I get it right.  This 
is especially challenging for close-ups and macros.
