March is half over and I've been busier than an old lady likes to be. Sometimes work gets in the way of living. I haven't had time to keep up with the photography course or this blog this month. Haven't had much time to do anything!
I did watch some of the videos from the Foundations of Photography: Exposure course on lynda.com during my free trial period, but I got caught up in extra work and didn't have time to get through more than 1/2 of the lessons so now I'm going to have to sign up to watch the rest of them. Which is OK because now I can take the one on Lenses also.
The videos in this course reinforced what I've learned in the NYIP course so far. I found the instructor, Ben Long, easy to follow and understand, but I'm not sure I would have understood it as well if I hadn't been reading up on exposure (aperture, shutter speed, and ISO) with NYIP for the past few months.
However, I liked the instructor's teaching style so well that I bought one of his books: Complete Digital Photography.
It's a fairly large book - over 600 pages - and covers the camera, exposure, lighting, composition, editing, etc, etc, etc. Quite a large portion of the book is on editing photographs. I haven't had time to read anything but the introduction yet, so I'll review the book in a later post after I've had time to do more than just look at the pictures. (This book does include many beautiful photographs.)
