Reviews of Washington Photo Safari

  • National Building Museum: An Architectural Photography

    Anonymous • February 12, 2025
    My biggest complaint was that the instructor provided incorrect information about tripod use at the Building Museum. Tripods are essential for indoor architecture photography. And it’s ironic that some of the exhibits displayed architecture photography that could only have been taken with tripods, yet the museum won’t allow patrons to use tripods. Had the course listing shared this restriction, I would not have attended the class. This caught several attendees by surprise. The Instructor was not as knowledgeable as I was expecting. Some of his information was a bit limited compared to readily available online classes — I was expecting him to provide more insights than what I can find on YouTube.

    The class was listed as Pacific Time weeks in advance. I was only alerted 4 hours before the class that the time was actually Eastern Time. I did not receive the email until I signed into the class at the original start time, 7pm Pacific Time and no one was there. I sent a message to the instructor who admitted it was strange that he hadn’t received a reply from me to his other email, but I have not been credited with another class yet. Really disappointed as I kept checking to make sure the time on CourseHorse hadn’t changed from PT to another time.
