I've been feeling really frustrated with my class lately. It feels like the more I learn, the less I know. *laugh* But about halfway through class as Mitch was rattling off camera jargon, I realized that I knew a lot about what he was talking about... flash back to my first class and I sat there thinking it was all gibberish. So I'm getting there slowly.
I know I'm too hard on myself, I always have been, gotta learn to enjoy making mistakes because I learn so much more from them.
So here's my pics. What do you think??
This is me playing with depth of field again... so much fun.
And then of course there is this monster... I wake up to this face every day. :)
In other news, I'm going to be sending out a GoVegan.net update in a few days so if you're not on the mailing list and want to be... send me an e-mail and I'll put you on the list.

That is a very special photo of your dog. I LOVE THAT SHOT!!!
I think your photo is an excellent example of 'less is more'... you didn't take a pic of the whole flower, just enough to suggest that is what it is. The composition is beautiful, and the depth of field is fantastic. Kudos!
P.S. not all monsters are bad ;-)
I studied photography on my own for a while, and I love it when you can get that depth of field thing going. The picture of Fergus is a classic!
Oooo... that first one was exactly what I was looking for on a Mothers Day card the other day.
I found a nice one- but that one would have been much lovelier.
Nice work.
i think the first one is still quite a bit of stuff. you're still seeing nearly all of the flower part of the flower and the background, tho fuzzy is "stuff".
i think the fergus one is excellent tho--the rest of the field is white and you only get a hint of his face. nice.
I love your depth of field pic of the fence; and the one of Fergus is truly magazine quality. Of COURSE you're going to do well in Photography; you have an artists eye...it's almost a given. I'm excited to see more of your work over time. I'm sitting here in Troy, Michigan (on business away from our Seattle home for 3 months) and waiting and waiting and waiting for your new book to get to me---I ordered it like whole DAYS ago. I'm sad to say that your other 2 books are packed away in storage in Seattle until, sadly, August. So thank you for writing a new book just so that I could order one to be here with me! (uhummm) Every day I go to the front desk "Any books come for me? Any books??" I can't wait to get ahold of it. I found your site this week and have spent days laughing over it. Thanks for all the fun and all the learning. Love Sarah Kramer!

The course is only $250. There is no cost for developing/printing/processing etc because I'm shooting digital and we bring our digital images to class for critique.
