2 weeks down.....a lot to go.

This week went by crazy fast! We worked on how to adjust your lens length and how you move closer to your subject to make the background do different things. We spent two days at a park practicing what we learned and one morning around the school practicing. We had another field trip this week. We went to Brattleboro, VT. I think its crazy that just 20 minutes North of my house isVermont. The pictures I have linked to this post are pictures for our practices and from Vermont.
In non school new,s as I was typing this blog my washer made a really awful noise then my kitchen started smelling like something was burning, so...I think our washer is dying!

It's Started!

So we have finally started. Goodness never thought it would be here. Last week was orientation stuff and this week classes have actually begun. We got our light meters and cameras on Monday and Tuesday. Learning to use both was intimidating and scary but I am finally getting the hang of it. My group went to a nearby historic town called Historic Deerfield and shot two different types of pictures in two different ways. I finally got the shots with much frustration and photographers block (my made up term to parallel a writer) but they turned out and my favorites were unfortunately not ones I could turn in. All in all a great day. Two more days this week can't wait to fill my brain more with crazy knowledge!


(I am working on finding an online photo album so I can post a link to see my pictures :) )
