"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences. " Gordon B. Hinckley, BYU, 2006

Photo 101

O.K. So I've been taking a photography class this month so that I can learn how to use my camera better. I usually just take all my photos in "Auto". But these past few weeks have been so informative. Just wanted to share some of my favorite ones of the month. Please don't critique these too much. I'm still learning. There is much I need to master. BUT--none of them were taken with "Auto".

This next photo is what's called "Panning". Notice how the background is blurred. But my subject is in focus. And he's moving...

Slow shutter speed...
