class project :)

well ... I finished my first class assignment tonight: I had to get away from the green auto and P modes on my S3 and take a few pictures on my own ... making the settings myself We had to take pictures of everyday things around our home. Not very exciting, but I don't think I did awful for my first time. One or two may be over exposed, I can't tell for sure.

A few of these were on P, and some were in Av or Tv mode. Manual still scares me.

Madge, I love Manual! I use it more than any other setting. Give yourself time and you'll love the control you have over your pictures!

I've shot in auto practically always, so wrapping my brain around the idea of settings has been a little overwhelming. Between this class and Understanding Exposure, I'm starting to get the hang of it. I think, once I go back and write down the settings I used on which picture, things will get clearer. I hope. I have 2 weeks to get a better handle on this before our vacation!

There's a guy in the class that needs to be in an intermediate group - he's far more advanced than anyone else and he's a know-it-all on top of that. I'm sure he'll have gallery quality pictures. hmph.

Thanks for all the kind words.
