"As a student of Cynthia Delaney's, I not only increased in knowledge and skill, but I found a stronger passion for learning the art of photography. She teaches on a personal level and gives encouragement to enhance your photographic abilities. I found working with Cynthia to be a positive and rewarding experience." --Shari Kurtz, Elko, NV

"I have taken a variety of classes from Cynthia Delaney over the years. She never fails to stimulate the creativity of her students and encourages them to express their individual talents in the field of photography."--Carol Petrie, Paint With Light Productions, Elko, NV

"The digital photography class helped me to start seeing life in a new perspective. I no longer take pictures in the old manner I used to--I look at the subject in a new way now and try to capture the essence of it. I don't limit myself to the same mundane shots of subjects that I have in the past...I go for the gusto of capturing 'detail'. Cynthia is a great instructor and full of energy. Her passion for photography is contagious."--Wendy Greener, Spring Creek , NV

"Cynthia's enthusiasm for photography and Northern Nevada came shining through the course I attended. There was a nice balance of lecture, hands-on with digital editing software, and individual help on images. She shared her expertise and experiences with all in a very positive way, encouraging everyone to advance no matter their skill level." --Jodi Esplin, Spring Creek, NV

"I learned some great shortcuts in Photoshop that have saved me a lot of stress!" --Melissa McNutt, Eternal Image, Elko, NV
