Getting our Feet Wet...

Today was the first day of shooting in class. Since we didn't have much time we just walked around Sanford Mall on campus and were told to shoot 3 images (one close up, one far away, and one that no one else would shoot). Considering this was the first time that I've had my camera out in weeks, I definitely enjoyed being able to shoot whatever I wanted to. 

My favorite shots of the day are : 

This image is of a light in front of the Bookstore. It's one of my favorites because everything is in focus, but the main focal point is the light.  I also love the difference in colors of the tree and the brick.


These flowers are some of my favorite flowers, so obviously I wanted a photo of them. I like this shot because of the way the flower is in focus, but the grass behind it is out of focus. One of the things I wish I had done differently was not shadow the flower.


I'm excited for this class and learning to use my camera more in depth. I am most excited to be able to have an excuse to go out and use my camera to photograph different things!
