This week our theme was MOVEMENT and to be honest I thought I struggled last week, but this week was hard.
Im not sure whether it was the actual theme or whether it was my inability to follow any kind of instruction,
but whatever the reason (which I am sure I will be able to fully determine with time), I felt completely uninspired.
While several of my photos this week do have an element of movement in them - its almost all by chance.
On the bright side, I did learn a whole lot this week , thanks to our group's Saturday night rendevous in some
of Auckland's less desirable hang outs - dark, smelly wharves and motorway off-ramps;
* I was exposed to a new language - photograper speak. Apertures, ISO, stabiliser off.....my head
was spinning and I did a lot of nodding, uhuh'ing and not a lot of understanding.
* I learnt to take night time pics (although quite a bit of practice still required)
* I now know what BULB means when it flashes up on my screen
It was really great to meet everyone and I cant wait to now put
some of my new skills to practice.

ReplyDeleteWas Tiger Woods really at your place? The opuicture looks a bit over exposed though as he looks a little washed out.
ReplyDeletehaha...although i think he would prefer to be likened to someone a little less 'hormonal'...
