Aperture is an integral part of photography but can be confusing at first to work with. It is best to think of it in opposites. I’ll explain this further shortly. Photography Life describes aperture similarly to how our eyes work: “As you move between bright and dark environments, the iris in your eyes either expands […]

Shutter…Not to be Mistaken by Shudder
One great feature of a DSLR camera is that you can use the Scene Intelligent Auto mode as a beginner and get great photos. But now it’s time to pull up my big girl pants and learn more about my camera’s manual functions. To get great images with the manual mode, there are three camera […]

So Fender is like the OG guitar brand, they were one of the first. Interestingly, Leo Fender, the guy who made the first Fender Electric guitar never learned how to play guitar! Anyways, here is the link to the app. … Continue reading

As this semester draws to a close, so does my experience with my online learning project. I have to admit, I was slightly irritated by this assignment initially…ok maybe more than slightly, but the thought of trying to find time to learn how to do something trivial online was infuriating and daunting. Luckily my brain made […]

I have recently been working on making Sully (my dog) a hat! Since the bandana went over so well with him, I decided to work on something else for him.

This post will continue to be my learning from Michael with the ILU sign as a logo… the one who laughs like Blippi. It’s unfortunate that I am enjoying these videos because his laugh is just too much for me sometimes, and he and I both share that we think our own jokes are hilarious as this makes him giggle quite often… so I’m sat here trying to learn new signs and vocabulary while constantly being annoyed but also engaged…
