Being Brave.....

Most of you guys know, I have a comfort zone when photographing......definitely indoors natural light and outside with tons of shade or an overcast day. Direct sun scares me.....I just can't read it that well and I think I tend to over-think things.

Now Enter Deb and Dee.....I'm doing their workshop on creative light and they are really pushing me out of my comfort zone and I love it. I'm by no means anything near what they capture with sunflare and so forth but I'm sooo proud of myself to attempting these. They are by far not correct but I hold them dear to my heart because I feel I'm opening a new door in my photography. =)







This one is a daring for me....the sun was too her right and I actually got some flare. =)

I was talking with Deb yesterday and she said that by the time I'm done with the class she has vowed to get me comfortable with using sun outside that that's all I'll want to shoot and that I'll have images that leave people speechless. She said that would make her sooooo happy....I love they are doing these workshops because they are determined to help others and that's important to me. =)

If you guys are interested in their workshops, check out the Workshop link to the right. They have a just starting out workshop as well if you feel you aren't ready for tackling sun. I have to admit, we are only on assignment #2 and I'm having a tough time with it so it's not for everyone. If you want to just get comfortable shooting, getting to know your camera and getting creative, I'd definitely do their JSO workshop first. =)
