Basketball Game


Im not at all thrilled with how any of my pictures from the basketball game worked out. I couldnt figure out what settings to use, and by the time I changed the settings again, the picture I wanted would have already passed me by. Very irritating.

Sam and Orchids (or at least thats what I think they are)

These photos were taken this weekend at my boyfriend's parents house in Ohio. Sam is their pet poodle who is attached to me constantly. I managed to catch him mid-yawn and I just love the picture. He's such a dollface. I took this picture with all my settings on auto and with flash (which unsuspecting Sam didnt appreciate).








These next pictures are of some flowers that friends brought over for my boyfriends mother. I was practicing what we learned in class about the Exposure Metering setting on our cameras when an object is very backlit (like the window with the orchid). I turned my flash on and set the metering on "center weight" then when that didnt work I set it to "spot weight" and was happier with the results.

GC


These were taken in Downtown Grove City. I was thrilled when I discovered that my oh-so-advanced Kodak EasyShare has a Color Settings option. These were taken with all the different White Balance Options in combination with different Color Settings.
