I’m skipping Assignment 4 for now as I am waiting for my filter to arrive. In the meantime, here is assignment 5.

Hi Rissa,

I like the colors in this image but I want to be sure you understand what the assignment is all about.

Can you please shoot another image for this one and I will critique both.

Thanks!

Here’s my second shot. I would have liked to be able to focus more on the dandelion, but the overall image is combines of a few simple colors.

These are nice colors.

Howcome couldn’t you focus on the dandelion?!

[Marissa Berguson]

I think my mistake could have been that I tried to take in too much of the person in the background in relation to the dandelion, so my result was a focus on the grass.

Did you try manual focus?

[Marissa Berguson]

I didn’t even think of it! I’m still getting used to this camera. I’ll remember the manual focus in the future! Thank you for pointing that out.

[Duncan Rawlinson]

I would recommend doing manual focus as much as you can to get comfortable with it!

Auto focus is handy but you really learn more using manual.

Thanks!
