The Right Teacher ,

is the catalyst who makes things fall in place in your brain. Practicing ie doing what is taught helps open the eye. What a combo!! As you all know I have been taking a photography class at jessicasprague.com. Yeah - I have some books on this subject as well but ISO, Aperture, shutter speed - well I couldn't hardly keep my shutters open haha. Now with the right teacher - Candice Stringham- Yeah babe!!it's all clicking!!
Of course the right tools help as well - Oh Yes!!!!!!!! I got my new camera and here
is my assignment for week 2. Mind you these are my first shots with the unfamiliar camera.
Have lots to learn. I was so scared to take it out of the box and trembling when I took the photo.
Thank god the camera lens has vibration control. You can click on the photo to enlarge a little and view in seperate window. The object of this lesson was how aperture priority is important in focusing the subject and blurring the background. I am happy with the blur I got. I am doing the happy dance and singing too.certainly not off key! I am a very good singer.
