Photo class is over. I now have a stack of beautiful black & white prints to admire, and maybe someday, frame. So what's next?
While the lessons I learnt in the darkroom are useful, they're not sustainable. Traditional photography is on its death-bed, and the trick is to transfer those processes to a digital darkroom. With a few tips from the instructor, I am now churning out near-professional quality prints out of my humble Epson.
Meanwhile, I've been trigger happy this weekend. A combination of good weather and the "Doors Open" heritage festival meant I was out the whole weekend clicking pictures. The processed ones are on flickr. Check them out.
so what is the most valuable thing your learned at pic class? I continue to be incredibly impressed with your photography.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the most valuable lesson? Hard to say. For one, I understand what all those photoshop tools actually do!! It also helped to look at everyone else's work, and get feedback on mine. I might go back and take another class in the Fall.
ReplyDeleteCool pics..
ReplyDeleteThanks. I like to think of it more as a hobby than a career :)

ReplyDeleteHOORAY! You are back! With more photos!
ReplyDeleteI had been wondering....
Love your pics!
Yeah. Your pictures look like they'd make a really nice calendar to go next to my desk - something I could look up at and smile and experience a little momentary relief from their beauty.
