Keep Up!

Photography is still awesome! It has been a whole semester and I am still in love with Erin Summerill Photography. That is a good sign. I have been taking a class learning how to use my camera and I have gotten to shoot quite a lot of pictures. I learned how to shoot in manual this week instead of using auto. Its just three simple things that you have to adjust before you shoot in any location. Like if I were shooting at sunset you would first adjust your ISO to like 400. Then you would change your F-Stop to 8. Then you would adjust your shutter speed by watching the meter inside the camera and keeping the tag at zero. That has been my biggest accomplishment these last couple weeks at Erin Summerill Photography.
            The hardest thing for me right now is to remember to keep my blog updated. I decided to take up the 365 challenge. Your probably wondering what that is. That means I will take a picture everyday for the next 365 days of my life and I will record why I took that picture and my favorite part about it. It should be a good thing to remind me to keep my blog updated!
            I am writing this blog on a different computer so I don't have any amazing pictures to show you this time because they are all on my other computer! but I will for sure next time.

My brand new (to me) camera!

 I finally got a camera! It's a Nikon D5000 and I got it for only $425!! it was a great deal! It is my new obsession. But I don't know how to use it! I can't wait till I'm amazing with my new camera! I know how to shoot I just have to get used to using my camera and getting fast at it so that I can start making money with it. I am super excited. Once I start shooting I will upload all my pictures and talk to you guys a lot more!
