Just when you think you’ve got it
I am in a real learning stage. I’m currently learning Elements and Web Design. What a kick! I love seeing how everything comes together. Now . . I hope I can remember how to do it all. I know that you’ve got to practice, practice, practice. I’m going to work on 2 websites and I’m hoping that I’m not in over my head. OR if I am in over my head the water is only 5′ 7″ . . . I won’t drown.
I have taken several workshops in Lightroom and have always felt like I’ve been swimming against the tide with huge waves pounding down on me. Sometimes I have the hardest time letting my mind wrap around something . . . right now Lightroom is that something. I just finished a weekend Lightroom. I had many “AH HA” moments! I left the weekend class with new bits of knowledge just bouncing around in my head. Now I can tackle my 78K files I have in LR and cull out my files because I know the filters to do so. I try to take photographs that don’t need to be tweeked or fixed in Photoshop. I don’t want to spend all my time fixing images on the computer . . . I want to be thoughtful in my process and decisions before I click the shutter. But I must admit I love it when something that is fleeting in my mind finally gels and I get it!! That is a rush for me!
I think the process of building my Blog and my websites (doing the writing and photography) is going to be an adventure.
