It’s 3:50pm on Tuesday night and I have photography class at 6:30. (Plus I have an hour drive to class.) I hadn’t done my homework yet!! I attempted on Monday, but the neighbor saw me outside and she came over to chat and well… a little margarita we had.
My assignment was to use my camera on manual mode and take pictures of action. I tried to make Maggie run around the yard but that was a flop. She wanted me to chase her, and I can’t chase and take pictures. So I gave up and decided to just try shooting in manual first. I have to set everything when in manual mode!
I also didn’t straighten out my horizon line! I hold my camera at a slant and it drives me crazy! I like to blame it on my twisted spine because I feel straight.
Oh and I also have spotted sun spots on Mally’s face! Those are bad!
Apparently I don’t listen in class, but I actually do. I just need to learn to slow down and apply all that I learn. I get so excited about one thing (or a couple of things) and completely forget about the rest. This is my first attempt at 100% manual mode… and I think I learned from my mistakes. I’ll try again real soon!!

Grasshopper II here! I wish there was a class nearby (or that your mom would do an online class!!!) The pics are great. Blue snow or not, I love the hat!
I do the same thing with the crooked shots! I get so frustrated at myself! "ugh that would be a good picutre if only it was straight!" Oh well!! Learning right!
