What's New...

Sadly my first photo class has come to an end. After only four short classes I've learned how to use the SLR camera and it's been a great learning experience. No more point and shoot, it's all manual for me now. I traded camera's with Annie. Her Canon Rebel XTi for my Canon SX10, and we are both happy with the trade. My next class (In Focus 1) begins March 6th. It will involve shooting at various San Diego locations, beginning with Balboa Park. I can't wait to get started!! I'm going to have the same teacher (Rod Deutschmann) I like him a lot he is very enthusiastic and makes learning fun. I have 1 week to practice, practice, practice. I hope to have some good pic's to post. Until then, have a great week!

Isolation in Black


I took this shot in my yard yesterday around 4:30. The east side of my neighbors house was in shadow. I was able to isolate the Hummingbird feeders in darkness...in the daylight.
