Why:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

I decided to choose this class because I thought it would be a good experience for me. I also thought it would be cool to learn something new. I have used very few cameras apart from a phone, but I have used a polaroid before and those can be tricky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Equipment: <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

In recent past I haven’t used much more than a phone, but I have only a few times used a DSLR as well as a polaroid camera.<\/p>\n\n\n

Goals:<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

My main goal for this class is to successfully learn a new skill that could be helpful to me and to have a fun time while doing it.<\/p>\n\n\n

This is a picture of when our class was on our field trip in DC and were walking through the city streets. It was pretty chilly when we walked around. I thought this picture was cool because of the early Christmas lights and the reflection of the sun off of the windows on all the tall buildings. I used my iPhone to take this photo. <\/p>\n\n\n

This picture was taken Christmas Eve when it was just getting dark at Long Wood Gardens. This arrange of flowers was inside one of many of their large greenhouses. I like this picture because of the colors it shows and the lighting on some of the flowers inside the greenhouse. I used my iPhone to take this photo.<\/p>\n\n\n

This is a picture I took when we were in Virginia. We were at the Virginia Aquarium when I took this photo. This picture is my little sister up against the glass of the aquarium looking at a sea turtle and some of the fish that were in there as well. I used my iPhone to take this photo.<\/p>\n\n\n

This picture was also taken in Virginia from our Condo balcony. It was during sunset and I thought it looked really cool. I like this photo because of how it portrays the sun and the ocean. I used my iPhone to take this photo.<\/p>\n\n\n

This is a picture of my cat. She’s a pretty, long haired cat that doesn’t do that much. One evening I thought that it would be cool to do some sunset photos, so my sister and I were taking some. About five minutes of taking photos and our cat was sitting beside us. I decided to take this picture of her, and I really like how the sun shines on her fur and through the grass. I used my iPhone to take this photo.<\/p>\n\n\n

This picture was taken in Belize. My youth group had just gotten done with eating fresh coconut, drinking fresh coconut water, and swimming when I turned around and realized how pretty the sunset was. As I was taking the photo, I really liked how the silhouettes of the trees really stood out in the sunset. I love this photo because the combination of the sunset and silhouettes of the trees are really pretty. I used my iPhone to take this photo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
