Looking Back

OK, so I've officially completed my first real multimedia assignment, and I have to say I'm pretty happy with it. I was a little intimidated at first because I've never owned a camera, and I've never fancied myself much of a photographer, but I ended up being pleasantly surprised. All the human subjects I worked with were great, all strangers, all completely cooperative. My favorite one, the one of the guy reading on that wall by T-hall, was completely candid, I never asked him if I could take the picture, either before or after, and I think that might be why I liked it so much. It was just real. The main problem I encountered was, you guessed it, lighting. I found some shots that would have been amazing had I had more, or less, light. Overall I really enjoyed the experience and I'd like to keep doing things like this. And I'm also still happy with the first photo I took of Jennesa. I noticed that no one else in the class did anything that extreme with editing, so I figured I'd give it a shot. Sandy reccomended that we download Picasa, so I did that, then just had fun with all the stuff you could do with it. Cool class.
