Even my book for Dummys hasn't helped me much but that is more my fault for not really giving it my all. I do love the pictures I take with my big girl camera but still prefer my little point & shoot for convience. I can't walk around Disneyland all day with the big one!Debby@Just Breathehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685398064340027809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-85425078237258027072012-02-02T12:21:47.521-05:002012-02-02T12:21:47.521-05:00I love the photos but love the words that go with ...I love the photos but love the words that go with them more!<br /><br />Looking forward to all the upcoming pictures!Carrie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01819737721881821638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-54255023921159526042012-02-02T11:08:43.282-05:002012-02-02T11:08:43.282-05:00Hmmmmm . . . lots of words for a photo prompt. :)Hmmmmm . . . lots of words for a photo prompt. :)Mindee@ourfrontdoorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14497067230788150516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-86344933064486300292012-02-02T08:45:52.594-05:002012-02-02T08:45:52.594-05:00As much as I love pictures, I agree with Marla...b...As much as I love pictures, I agree with Marla...blogs are for words, and your words describing your hill made me yearn to see it, or have my own hill to enjoy. <br /><br />I'm looking forward to hearing about these "things" coming up! :) Good luck with your photography lessons.Rebecca https://www.blogger.com/profile/05049268645214229527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-24856865764603060022012-02-02T06:20:41.223-05:002012-02-02T06:20:41.223-05:00Joyce, I put my pics on FB mostly... that's m...Joyce, I put my pics on FB mostly... that's my number one obsession. I have family pics, travels, etc. there. Are you a FBer, or spend your efforts on the blog?<br /><br />When I decided to blog it was for WORDS. I had felt the need for awhile to put my thoughts down, and to try my "skill" at telling a story. Thus the creation of "Marla's Musing."Marlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02709403392707881786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-43390412235267143302012-02-02T03:58:12.454-05:002012-02-02T03:58:12.454-05:00"but still looked like February.
The End.
You...<i>"but still looked like February.<br />The End.<br />You're welcome.</i><br /><br />Okay, first, that's just funny. <br />Second, here they are lamenting about the lack of snow, and while I hate processing snow (shoveling, driving in it), it does make things a lot prettier, at least at first. <br /><br />Good luck with your photos. :)Cheriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15783416806379420376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-30053568088637144662012-02-01T22:57:49.451-05:002012-02-01T22:57:49.451-05:00Sounds like a fun challenge.

One tip I gleaned is GET CLOSE--closer still!--to your subject. Most amateurs include too much background. The other good tip is the rule of thirds. Envision your frame divided into thirds, and put your subject in the left or right third, not dead center (it's boring and can have the "bullseye" effect). I don't have much else to offer. And I prefer words. Always have, always will, forever and ever.
