In our J 2150 Class we had to take pictures for a project called Seeing Red. Our professor told us our central focal point has to be a red object. I went around downtown Columbia and found some great red finds! The first time I used the Nikon-D7000 I had a really hard time figuring out how to use it. Once I asked numerous friends who were camera gurus and tried to figure out what all the camera terminology “mumbo jumbo” was, I kind of got the hang of it. Now I have a better appreciation for photographers because there are so many elements involved, such as, lighting, shutter speed, focus, angle, depth of field, etc. I never thought that using a camera would be this difficult, and now I understand that becoming a professional photographer is no easy thing. Here are the final photos I chose for the project, they aren’t exactly perfect, but still fun anyway!
