Creative Photography

Spent a fabulous day yesterday on a 'Creative Photography and Scrapbooking' course.

The day started with a theory class with Kirsty where we learnt about white balance and the difference it can make to your photo's. This was followed by a practical class with Kirsty learning how to take those gorgeous shots where the subject is in focus and the background is blurred. We all then had a photo taken by Kirsty, so I can now say that I've been 'Kaptured by Kirsty' LOL!

Then I had a practical class with Natalie learning about how to use shutter priority to capure movement. I only had limited success with this technique but the class was amazing - Natalie is such a natural teacher.

After lunch we did a LO class with Kirsty using glossy accents on acetate. The final class of the day was a totally gorgeous canvas using the photo taken by Kirsty earlier in the day. This class was amazing, I loved it (probably becuase it was all painty and inky LOL!). It was the first time Debbie Nicholas had ever given a class but again, she was fantastic, a natural teacher!

The only problem now is that I NEED a better camera now......

I had a great day- learnt new things, did some amazing classes with great company and we ate chocolate cake - what more could a girl want LOL!
