    Photography Class Feature

              Last semester Lake Wales High School added a photography class to our list of fine arts programs. Mr. Moyer, the photography teacher, has made a great effort in the development of this class. He has even started a Photography 2 class this semester. In this class you will learn everything from taking the perfect photo to editing it in Iphoto and photoshop. You will also learn about the development of photography and all of the parts of a camera.

              They have recently added a display case of some of their work in the halls of Lake Wales High School under the word Respect. These photos were taken by Mr. Moyer's first year photography class. Some of these photos are displayed at the bottom of this web page. So when you get the chance, go take a look at some of thier amazing photographs.
