HDR Photography
Frustrated with blown-out highlights and muddy
shadows? The camera does not see as well as you
can in high contrast scenes. It is difficult to capture
a scene with one shot. How do the pros do it? They
use High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography. By
combining exposure techniques with a computer
program, you can composite multiple images into one
beautiful image that realizes detail in both highlight
and shadow areas.
We’ll show you the proper techniques for capturing
a high-contrast scene and what types of scenes
will work best. Then enter the digital darkroom
using Nik HDR Efex Pro 2 to see how to properly
combine images to create both realistic and
surrealistic images.
Meet in the PVCC Stultz Center parking lot at 8:45
a.m. to carpool to our field destination to capture
images to work on in the classroom. The instructor
will brief you on techniques, settings to use and the
type of image you are looking to capture. Return to
the PVCC classroom to download images, receive
instruction on using Nik HDR Efex Pro 2 and then work
on your images in class.
Equipment required: SLR digital camera, tripods and
laptop with Nik HDR Efex Pro 2 loaded (no downloads
during class time). Download a free trial of the
program from www.google.com/nikcollection/. Click
the “try now” button in the upper right corner.
Prerequisites: Intermediate Photography or know

and adjust aperture, shutter speed and ISO to get an
exposure and be able to download images for the lab

Network Spinal Analysis
Network Spinal Analysis has been shown to help
people with conditions ranging from back pain to
post-traumatic stress disorder, substance abuse and
infertility.
During an NSA session your spine and nervous system
are evaluated for the presence of spinal cord tension.
Then, instead of twisting, cracking or popping your
spine, precise touch to specific areas near the ends
of your spine with just a few ounces of pressure is
used to create what’s called “spinal entrainment,”
a shifting of your nervous system from defense to a
more sustainable pattern of ease.
Dr. Brian Dickert, a Charlottesville chiropractor since
1997, will describe the wellness benefits of NSA and

The Roots of Fine Wine
Resistant rootstocks are an elegant biological solution
to the problem of growing European wine grapes (Vitis
vinifera) in the presence of otherwise destructive soil
pests, notably grapevine phylloxera. These rootstocks

a prosperous vineyard requires understanding how
vine physiology, site conditions and viticultural
practices all combine to impact vine balance and wine
quality. This class will examine important viticultural
issues from the rootstock’s point of view, whereby
wine is the result of water’s journey from darkness
into light through a labyrinth of hidden passages.
