1000 Words

You guys know I don't participate in stuff like this very frequently (Not only because of time constraints, but also because I made the decision a long time ago that I didn't want to market products through my blog.) but when Studio Calico contacted me about an upcoming class of theirs called 1000 Words, I decided that I really liked the concept and wanted to be a part of it.

So I'm a contributor to the class amongst a list of instructors and fellow contributors that I feel proud to see my name next too (including Maria Grace Abuzman who I adore, but haven't talked to in years and Erin Cobb who I adore and talked to earlier this week.)

And a few of us are even doing a blog hop, where you can find links to some of the blogs of other instructors and contributors. (Just click here for those links.)

And I wanted to post a bunch of my favorite images so participants in the class could get a feel for my shooting style, but alas, I am swamped with work, so I'm just going to share this recent favorite...

And it's not too late to sign up for the class if you're interested. (Registration ends on 9/30 and class begins on 10/1.)

Oh, good gosh! I signed up for this class as soon as I saw it, because of the SC contributors! I didn't even realize you and Erin are part of it! I can't tell you how over the moon I am now!!!! Yippeee!!!!

But what if I only have an iPhone camera and a point and shoot? Thinking of asking Santa to start saving for a "real" camera for when I retire and have time to take "real" photography classes... But right now it's not in the budget... Could I still take this class?

[Gayle Shrader]

I have had a D7000 for about 1 1/2 years and have always kept it on auto. I am a teacher of 6th graders and an advid scrapbooker with my "auto" pictures. I am a hands on learner and have tried taking a class or two where there was a lot of lecture but no hands on "assignments". I stumbled across a message board where people were HIGHLY recommending your online photography class. I immediately went to your site to find the class is full. I was so BUMMED. I feel like my camera could do so much if I just knew what I was doing. I am so hoping come October 15th I can be fast enough to secure a spot in your next class. I would even settle for auditing the class that is starting soon. I can't wait to be a student again. I would love to take this class. Do you think it would be OK even if I am still and AUTO shooter?

We've been watching Annie grow up for a few years but this photo gives a glimpse of an Annie-yet-to-be...a beautiful teen and woman. You've captured yet another amazing slice of your child's life.

Estan constantment a l'escenari i fàcil de tenir en compte. Gràcies molt per les valuoses idees que tens compartits a continuació.
