Oh boy, as I said to Troy, "day 2 was not as much fun as day 1!" hehehehe
Let's just say I learned very quickly that I have no skills when it comes to techniques and photography....Bokeh, what the heck is Bokeh???? Well, I discovered today; it is not my friend.
We were given an inspiration photo and directions...that I followed to the best of my amateur ability, and, well, you'll see the results.
 |
| So, this is the inspiration pic from The 365 Project. Pretty right? |
|
 |
| And here is my failed attempt number 1! |
 |
| Seeing the circles of Bokeh, but is this what it's supposed to look like? Doesn't seem quite right. |
 |
| hmm, over exposed!!!!! |
 |
| Troy, get in front of the tree and let me see if I can get you in focus, and keep the bokeh in the background.... FAIL!!!! |
 |
| Getting closer...but this was, like, shot 105! |
 |
| oooo, pretty! |
 |
| What is the purpose of this again? |
 |
| Still wondering if I can get something in focus in front of the tree.... |
 |
| more bokeh! It looks like the inspiration pic right? |
 |
| TaDa!!!! (is that how you spell it?) Well, this looks neat! |
 |
| Not super in focus, but working on it. |
 |
| Pretty Pretty!!!! |
 |
| Baby bokeh!!!! |
|
|
Well, my final thoughts of the day's shoot, hmm....I'm no good with technique! I have a lot of work to do and I'm going to keep chugging along.
My next challenge for myself...............sun flare!!!
Hopefully we'll have some sun tomorrow and I can get out of school at a decent hour.
