Learning the Camera... Again!

I took 2 and 1/2 semesters of photography in college... I won't say how long ago that was, but let's just say it was before digital cameras made it's way onto the scene. I spent countless hours in the darkroom back then, and enjoyed every single minute of it. These days, the cameras you can buy make taking pictures so easy and I have become very lazy! It's been a long time since I have not relied on "automatic" settings.

But since I've been back on the photography wagon lately, I decided it is time I relearn how to take pictures the right way... by manually programming my own aperture, shutter, and exposure.

Whewee! It sure has been a while! While I struggled this weekend to remember what I used to know, I tested out my rusty skills around the house on random items, and on my cats, Yoda and Chloe. I have a lot more practicing to do, but I was happy the pictures actually came out!
