Recently I have been learning about how to pick the best angles for taking pictures. Using unusual angles such as lying down or, turning the camera to focus on the object can create a better outcome or pretty perspective. Make sure you fill in the frame with the whole object. When your taking a picture of a building, make sure you step back to get the whole picture.

Im deciding to post all my pictures this coming weekend! Today I am going to share a few things i've learned. I have recently been learning how to choose a different type of setting on my camera. I've also been really interested in photographing my friends. To photograph a person, you turn the dial to a picture of a face. If you are photographing a plant or flower you change the dial to another setting with a tulip.📷🌷👱

I am uploading pictures as soon as possible. I have not  had time lately. 

I took soooo many pictures over spring break! I hope to have them uploaded by this week! I took time to learn how to get good quality photos with my moms help.🎈📷🗻 .

I am headed to spring break this week! I am flying out to Colorado on Tuesday. 
I am bringing my camera and my phone and will be taking many pictures. I am excited to upload them and explain them next week. ッ 

I've learned that keeping up with uploading pictures is pretty difficult. I have a few pictures i want to upload but i'm going to wait and them next week, so i can have a full explanation on how i did the pictures, because i used the same advise from my mentor to take all of them. 💗😉💖

I'm kind of behind on my proposal. I was supposed to upload my first photo last week but, i was absent from school and have been sick, so that didn't happen. I will try to upload my picture this weekend. I have been learning things though. 

My mother has given me some advise on photography. I was learning how to correctly focus the camera. I've chosen my mom as a mentor because she is really good at taking pictures. So, this weekend i will upload my picture.😊 I will describe more of what i learned when i post my picture.

Reality Check

I have a pretty nice Nikon camera at home that I got for Christmas that I will use to take pictures. I also have a pretty good quality camera on my IPhone 7.

Possible Roadblocks

I do predict some roadblocks in the future. If I come to not being able to upload a picture on a certain date, I will just work in time to upload it within the next few days.

Conclusion

I’m really excited about this project because I love to take pictures but am not always the best at it, so I can’t wait to learn!!
