Intro to Digital Photography: Week Eight, Or why I'm re-taking the class.
By DIY Maven
So yesterday was the final session of my eight-week intro to digital photography class. Because I had enjoyed every minute of it and learned more than I could have imagined, it might have been a sad occasion. However, upon talking to fellow students and my astute instructor, I decided to re-take the class. Although it might sound odd–it did to MWT when I first broached the subject with him–it really makes perfect sense. Consider potters or painters at this particular or any particular arts’ center anywhere in the world. They schedule studio time to work with wheels, to focus on their art, to get away from daily life that can drain inspiration. It’s the same thing with the photography class. It makes us work with our cameras, which we could easily set aside as life gets in the way. It makes us talk about photography. It helps us be inspired by others’ work. The kicker to this story is that no less than three of my fellow students are retaking the class with me, and because of this, our instructor is going to tailor the next class as a continuation of this class, keeping in mind any newbies, of course. So my love affair continues for eight more weeks. Unless, of course, I decide to re-up for a third time. I could see it happening.
