Self Portrait


This is my first learning and figuring out how to use the SLR camera assignment. I usually don't like taking picture of myself so I have my little nephew, Christopher as my model in many pictures. He lives with me since birth until now so practically, he's my spoiled brat. Those pictures show a little bit about my life, such as home, work, my favorite place, hobbies. As you can see, there is no creativity in me. I see things as they are and I appreciate the natural beauty of them. I don't really know what I suppose to write in a blog, please let me know what I can improve next time in writing and the assignment itself. Thanks :-)

Something about myself

This is the first time I write a blog, so please bear with me until I get use to it. I consider myself as a point and shoot photographer, just take the pictures hope for the best and don't know why some pictures are so lousy. Naturally, I blame that to the camera instead. I did not own a SLR camera until I bought a Canon Rebel XT for this class. So a lot to figure out how to use it. This class intimidated me at first. It seems like many students are professional at this. I have to start learning somewhere somehow, and I think this class will be great, friendly classmates and nice and helpful teacher and TA. Personally, I like to take nature, flower pictures, people, anything that is real because creativity is not in my gene. I hope by the end of the class, I'll be able to take better pictures and have fun along the way.
