February

I had the very unexpected opportunity to take a trip to Hawaii for a week with my two cousins. I brought along my digital camera and took over 300 shots. This gave me practice using Aperture, the program I bought to organize and edit images. I am still learning how to use my digital camera--refining my skill, reading and re-reading the manual and practicing new settings. I'm also now learning how to adjust levels, contrast, crop, and use layers in Photoshop. Photoshop is a limitless world that goes on forever. I feel like the more I know, the more I don't know, despite all the practice. I've downloaded some of my favorite Hawaii photos on Facebook so I can share them with friends and family. I'm struggling to get caught up on the sessions I missed at C.R. while away. My MTP is on hold until next month, but I am finding plenty of time to learn and practice technology.
