SHOOTING the CI Photography enthusiasts were given an opportunity to see how a professsional oper– ates in the field through Michael Lloyd's pho– tojournalism class. Lloyd, an Oregonian staff photographer, has taught the class all three terms and has ended the series with his Photojournalism Project course in Spring Term because of the workable weather and extended daylight hours. Shooting on location gives students a chance to learn practical field techniques and, at the same time, practice what they learn instantly. Each week the class met at a different location in Portland. Then the class proceded to document the area with their cameras. Lloyd got started in photojournism in the 70's at Portland State when David Fal– coner, Oregonian's chief photographer at the time, taught photojournalism through the Division of Continuing Education. Lloyd has kept the tradition alive.-Tom Boyd. 80 Top: After the meeting with the class in Old Town, some of the students prefer to search alone for the perfect image.
