Day 274 One For You, Debbie

Thursday, October 1 – This is the first day of a new month. I think a good way to start is with this shot from Gibson of Debbie’s favorite flower. I hope I am right about it being the right one.  I have a day to work on my next swap recipes. I got them all prototyped yesterday and printed out even. I have my class assignments to finish up before the weekend too. I got my last critiques today and was thrilled with them. my instructor really liked what I did this week.  I had to do two contact sheets of 24 photos each taken of things of one color. I chose my favorite which is orange. Then I had to chose 6 photos that tell a story and create a montage with them. Next was picking my favorite photo of those. The final two were to be photos that used metaphor and symbolism of what certain colors represent. It was a very difficult assignment, but I did have fun doing it. I picked things that I had taken that represented my life. The teacher thought it was good, so I guess I did okay. I sure learned a whole lot about Lightroom2 with this assignment. I now know how to make contact sheets. The next assignment is not so difficult.

    I love, Love, LOVE this photo. It’s so beautiful and you are right, these are my very favorite flowers (pansies are a close second)!

    Congratulations on glowing critiques from your instructor. They are well deserved, my friend. I think the assignment using photos that used metaphor and symbolism of what certain colors represent sounds very interesting. I would love to see what you did for this assignment if you don’t mind sharing.

    Love,
    Debbie

    Very nice, as usual. I knew you’d do good in this class. It just is making you stretch a little bit.

    It wouldn’t be nearly as fun if it didn’t!
