memorial day
There was a ceremony that Janelle told me about here in Skokie. It was the Monday after I got back from the Baseball tournament. I really didn't feel like going but went to check it out anyways. Got a few decent pics but wasn't expecting much with the Lumix FZ-20. The DoF was a lot better than I expected. Might have been becasuse I was shooting in Apeture mode at 2.8. I tried to get this one in the pioneer press (local paper) (Skokie Review) but I guess it didn't make it. They mainly want nature/ animal shots.
That brings me to another thing. It might just be that I'm not that great at it but I just don't like Nature shots (i.e.- flowers n such) I just find them so boring. I know some of them might be "beautiful" but I guess i just don't apreciate it. Shooting sports is my favorite but if I get a news event with good lighting, I'm happy too. I may be switching to Journalism this semester. This'll be major number 3 I believe? Yeesh, just want to get out. Hopefully I can learn how to write well becasue after this, don't know what I'd do. Photojournalism would be nice but I don't think my skill level is high enough to make it yet. Still trying to save up for that Canon 30D. Got a long way to go...
