photo class

WARNING:
lots of pictures that no one else may want to see!


For about 2 years I have wanted to take a certain photography course that's offered online
this year for my birthday
I bought it!!
I'm learning a lot about my camera 
and photography!


ISO
aperture
manual  
rule of thirds
concept ideas of line and simplicity
whatever
it's all awesome!

here are  some first attempts...
flowers seemed the easiest subject matter
and lucky we had a nice sunny day!

over exposed


yeah!
i fixed it

poor rose trying to hang on in this fall weather





a little out of focus
but the color is pretty





I like this one!




 too dark
 fixed it!




 too dark but this is the one the boys (Jared) like best


different angles



my assistant was bored
we actually came outside to weed my over neglected garden
but I got distracted
Sorry for all the flower pictures
they hold still
my model doesn't!

I have to or at least I can submit 5 photos for feedback

1 portrait 
1 detail
1 action
2 of my choice

we'll see 
at least I'm learning something and having fun at the same time!
thanks for looking
