PHOTOGRAPHY WORKSHOP held on January 13th at Potomack Company.

The Photography Workshop for Appraisers was  great success.  Photographer and instructor David Smith was excellent, and we learned many useful tips for taking images on site and in using and adjusting our camera settings.

We would like to thank Elizabeth Wainstein and her staff at Potomack Company for hosting our event.
