Description I started a photography course. Our first assignment is to just take a photo of a teddy bear ... and for the next few weeks this teddy will be our model.

This is week 1 just take a photo and lets go from there
week 1 just take a photo and lets go from there
week 2 is playing with colour balance
week 3 is playing with aperture
week 4 is composition
week 5 putting all the lessons to good use

Concept - well this is Russ, he's my camera assistant, he's not very big and ... well ... the result is that he fell into the camera bag! Silly Russ!

Constructive criticism is much appreciated ... I would love some feedback even if it's to tell me what you think went wrong.

week 2:
week 3:
week 4:
week 5:

If you like teddies ... have a look at these:

LOL Did I mean it wrong? DD stands for Daily Deviation I've tried to mean this shot deserves a DD (daily deviation). No other meaning... Great shot, in fact great series congratulations again

I found a bear, in the snow, three years ago.
I ,myself was lost in the snow. A bad storm.
people had died. I could not cope. I got horribly drunk...............
I could not see a thing, not anything, I was blind. It was blowing.
I had been drinking, and I was lost. I was willing sitting there to die.....
Then I got this Teddie into my arms. Out of fucking nowhere.
But my little bear spoke to me, to not sit and freeze.
I stood up and knew where to go. And I did not die.
It's a stupid story, I can not be bothered.

FireFlyExposed In reply to Biroblue [2012-05-05 06:35:52 +0000 UTC]

Insanity is relative ... since most people are more "sane" than me ... I think the ruling is that no, no I do not talk to many insane people ... it's mildly refreshing

With Your talent, You hardly need a course...
Not that it could do any harm.
You are somewhat of a natural.
Just never leave limbs, or parts out....There you go.....
I once went through that stuff. stick with Your mind.
But I'm worried about Your assistant.....
Seems a rather nice chap.... Will you fire him ?.........
I found an assistant in the snow in Holland, three years ago,
Of not much use...but he is my friend.... [link]
I only draw these days.............and I never once forgot my assistant...

Have a better day......

FireFlyExposed In reply to Biroblue [2012-05-02 20:12:33 +0000 UTC]

HAHA ... I have a tendency to take about 100 photos and get maybe 5 good ones ... the course I took was to figure out how to take more good photos (which it has done ... I now get about 15-20 good shots out of 100 and it's getting better)

Aww ... no, Russ is clumsy but still a good assistant

I love your assistant! So adorable! You draw really well

How can You be so brilliant and stupid at the same time.?
can You not see the danger and blood lust of some people.
If I come over, after they killed You, I will be 51.
What would Your age have been....? Out of curiosity...
no, really, I would like to know.arrogant little girl.
Sisters and brothers, please ??? None....?
I know its a very beautiful country.
It are the people that make it ugly.
Not You, angry people,and some are bad people.
Get a brilliant hideout. Were they can not find You.
I’ve been there ten times before. As a boy.
you need a brilliant hiding place.
You can show this to Your parents.
Nice talking to You.............

you read my note ... you know how old I am
I had to grow up alone ... no sister to have late night boy talk, giggle or play dress up with ... no brother to protect or annoy me ... only my teddies and I stood bravely together against the blood thirsty masses.

My teddy will be there to stop the tokoloshe in the night and warn me during the day

He was probably looking for something for you there. It happens to me too sometimes, to bury myself in the closet like this, until only my... rear remains visible.
