Photography Course


I participated in 2 lessons for Photography this week!!!! Our teacher, the 38 years young Photoreporter Giovanni took us 7 "pupils" by the hand and guided us through this immense and fascinating world of photography, showing us the most important things - the basics - that have nothing to do with automatic options...but MANUAL settings of the camera.  Shutter speed and Aperture, aperture and shutter speed that's it.


Titti with her Nikon, myself with my Canon learning finally how to use this wonderful tool.
After these 6 hours of theory, now it is our turn to put it pratice this little knowledge.

I did not know that Jpeg is a reduced format, TIFF is not. The best setting is to put it in RAW and jpeg, so to have the RAW negative from which you can work out every reduced or non-reduced format you like.

Well...now I start, with the manual settings...approaching versus the manual focus...but that is the one I am really afraid of ! I'll do my very best.
