Helena is sponsoring a year long creative photography meme called Zoom In/ Zoom Out. And since I'm planning on doing a CaptureYour365 Project this year and seriously work on my photography skills, I thought it would be fun to join in on this challenge. Can't promise I'll participate every week, but I'm going to do as much as I can!
I'm also signed up for a couple photography courses this year. First up Frugal Still Life Photography which begins January 6th and is totally FREE. Care to join me? I signed up for this one because honestly my favorite type of photography is flowers and nature shots. Flowers make great highly cooperative subjects! About half-way into FSLP, I'll be starting Practice! which begins on February 4th. This class is a year long - once a month topic (such as aperture) with four different assignments attached to it. Regular price is $124, but you can grab it on sale for $99 just until Monday. I hope this is the one that is going to teach me the ins and outs of my camera! Hope to see some of you in class!
And without further ado, my first Zoom In/ Zoom Out attempt:
