I’m a lazy photographer. In fact, I feel like a poser sometimes when it comes to photography. I have taken several classes through the years but I have never really been able to wrap my head around the technical aspects of picture-taking. So I just use the auto settings on my camera. I know. Totally lame.

Well, being on Flickr and seeing everyone’s beautiful pictures has inspired me to get a little more serious. Last night Raf and I went to a local High School and played around with night photography and we had so much fun! This was the first time I have ever used the manual settings on my camera and it was good to have someone there to bounce ideas off of. I’m so glad he is interested in this, too because he is very good at technical stuff so he will help me grasp all of this.
