Renae and I spent some time this evening talking cameras. We moved from Program setting to Aperture setting, discussed what happens when you mess with ISO and shutter speed, and took countless odd photos as demonstrations of our knowledge (or as it sometimes turns out, our lack thereof). A simple white balance change made all the difference in the rich yellow light of the dining room—a touch of camera magic, if you will.
Learning about photography together = good.
Sharing pizza for dinner while Brook is in town = good.
Letting the kids play and entertain themselves = good.
Living next door to good friends = BRILLIANT.

The photojournalist’s key to great shots: f/8 and be there.

Someday it would be fun to do a class! But right now it’s the blind leading the blind. : )

I would love to have a sit down as well. I love talking photo talk with people who know more than I do…but only a little bit more so as not to leave me frustrated in the dust. :-)
I’ve been meaning to tell you…my husband read one of your comments on my blog a few weeks ago then clicked over to your blog and read for a few minutes…then he came in and said to me, “Hey, you and Rebecca sound very, very similar.” I laughed and agreed.
