You may not know it, but that smartphone you carry around in your pocket is a powerful camera, capable of taking photos that you’d be proud to print, frame, and hang on your living room wall. “But wait,” you say, “my images never look good enough for that!” Well, here’s your chance to move from snapshots to great shots! In this informal, informative program, Matt Poole, veteran nature photographer and retired U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service ranger, will provide all the tips and tools necessary for you to create your own wall art with your phone camera.

This free presentation will take place at the Rachel Carson Center for People and Nature, located at 188 Brown Street in Kennebunk. No need to register; simply join us!

This program is sponsored by Friends of Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge. Coffee, tea, water, and cookies will be provided, and the Friends Store will be open for purchasing wonderful nature-themed holiday shopping.
