Nita - Assignment 13

OK - we are almost done with the lessons on MorgueFile. Up to #8 as we continue to explore studio lighting. You don't realise how good the professional version of these photos are until you try to do it yourself without the same equipment. Here is a reminder of what the lesson covered... http://www.morguefile.com/docs/Jodie_Coston:_Lesson_8

Not overwhelmed with any of my photos, but here are a couple.

Nita - Assignment 12

Portrait photography....hmmm, harder than it looks seeing as lighting is so important. I tried the technique of taking photos of my subject in the shade for these first couple of shots as it was such a sunny day this morning. Jag doesn't overly enjoy having his photo taken and will tend to run off when I get the camera out.

This backend is SOOOO loved! How can I resist not photographing it when he presents it to me when I get the camera out.

Not the most ideal light for this one - but liked the idea of photographing Jag in his 'environment' as he patrolled his territory along our back wall.
