Photography

One of my goals for the past couple of years has been to learn how to properly use our camera. It has never really happened. I pretty much use the auto setting on the camera and that works. I know there is much more I can do with it. A few weeks ago I saw that a local photographer was teaching a basic photography class in our neighborhood. I decided to use my birthday and Christmas money to take the class.

Monday night was the first class. It was pretty much just the basics on using my camera but I actually learned alot. It helped me to actually be able to read the manual and understand it. I have been practicing different settings the last few days and I found a little boy playing in his room makes a great subject...
None of these photos were taken on auto and I used some different functions on them. Still a LONG way to go but I do think they are getting better. The toys gave me a great chance to practice shutter speeds. I am sure you will be seeing lots of different photos over the next few weeks as I practice and complete my homework!
