The first day I walked into this class, I didn't have much experience with digital cameras. I knew some things from my photography class last trimester, but in the past 12 weeks I have learned a lot more about cameras and photoshop. When we first got out the cameras, I was a little confused on how to work it because I was used to a film camera. I only knew how to shoot in auto when we first got the cameras. Now, I like shooting in manual because you can choose how the picture looks if you need it darker or lighter. My first few photo assignments were not good, especially my first one. My first assignment i couldn't figure out how to turn the flash on, so all of my pictures were not good. The very first time we had opened photoshop I was very confused, I didn't know how to do anything. Now, I feel like I have improved on many thing, like photoshop, even though I am not good at it, and taking pictures all around.
