Wow, where exactly did April go? It has been almost an entire month since my last post, but it was not out of complacency. April really has been a wonderful month in all aspects, but my blog has taken a bit of a backseat to more pressing issues at hand. One of the most fullfilling projects I undertook in April was a 4 evening course on the basic aspects of digital photography. With 20 interested digicam compact and SLR touting people willing to put themselves at the whim of my attempt at teaching, we covered the basics of the camera, composition, and lightly touched on post-process editing and final output options. I never knew how great teaching can be (especially when you have students who REALLY want to learn). To be able to help someone begin to see the light, to point someone in the right direction, or to light a small fire that makes a person want to jump into something they have always had the instinct to, but just needed that verbal incentive is one of those end of the day satisfactions you don't get all the time. I am hooked and this fall will not only see a repeat of the basic level 'across the board' course, but as a result of interest, more focused 'hands on' shooting seminars will also be offered. Stayed tuned:-)To kick off Spring, a few photos taken prior to the Spring Fashion Extravaganza held at the St. Marys Golf and Country Club.
