Update

Exciting stuff happening in the world of photography.

I have experience with film photography: film cameras, developing the film, developing the prints, etc. However, my digital photography skills are not up to par. I used a digital when I took photos for the newspaper and I used it a little bit after I took my film class, but usually it stayed on auto.

Well, Tuesday night I went to my first class at Wolf Camera. It was "Intro to Digital" and I probably already knew half of what our teacher (Rob) talked about. But what I didn't know was well worth sitting through the class. I now know what most of the buttons on the camera mean!

When I was leaving for work Wednesday, I found a package on my doorstep and another in my mailbox. The package on the doorstep contained Minimalist Lighting: Professional Techniques for Studio Photography by Kirk Tuck, which is supposed to be the raw beginners guide to lighting. The package in the mailbox contained my ML-L3 remote, which will allow me to take pictures without pressing the shutter button on my camera.

I'm hoping the book will help me as I delve into strobism, and I know the remote will be helpful when I start my 365 project on flickr.

I posted a Bench Monday and a Pretty Pink Tuesday picture this week. I also made some edits to a picture in Photoshop based on suggestions made by flickrites in the Photography Critique group.

Saturday is my next big photography day! I'll be at that wedding as a lighting assistant!! =D
