I love outdoors photography. In these images I mainly used automatic settings until recently when I learned how to use manual preferences. The last picture might be my favorite because of the emotion captured in the image. The boy is sharp and in focused, but his Father behind him is slightly out of focus. It is a story of triumph and success achieved through manual settings. I can not wait to learn more about shutter speed and F-stop to add to the quality and style of my photography. Image 5 was changed to black and white. No additional edits were made.

  1. I really liked My Shell and Cheers. My Shell has a very artistic feel to me. Black and white was a good choice. With Cheers I liked the message. Even though I wasn't there, I can still feel happy for the kid. I believe photos should evoke some sort of emotion.
