Photography Class

Last weekend I went up to Sundance for a photography class, my very thoughtful Mother's Day gift from Spike and Sharon. It was great! I loved learning more about the art of photography and I finally feel like I understand a little bit about how to make aperture, shutter speed, and film speed work for me to achieve a desired effect. This blog will no longer be filled with snapshots, it will be graced with photographs :)

Here are a few of my favorite snaps photographic masterpieces of the day:

I liked the composition, but on the automatic settings it didn't feel gloomy enough

Oops, yes, that's dark enough

Perfect - just what I was going for!

A study in vertical lines (and using a wide-open aperture)

Curvy lines (and more macro)

I liked this curvy line, but wanted to get a bit more of the stream detail

Love it :)

LoVe It! You are great at this photo bit! Your language is way over my head though! I usually just say "CHEESE" and hope the lens cover is off :)

Wow, Jamie, that's so exciting! I'd love to take a class like that some day :-) Your photographs are beautiful!
