Assignment 4



I have had major computer problems for the last 2 weeks, so I am a bit behind with the blog - but here it is for all it is worth!!! :)


My daughter and I went to London last weekend to see Dirty Dancing in the West End.....It was spectacular, if any of you like the film (my daughters' favourite ever film!!!!!!) you will absolutely LOVE the show!! Vikki wants to go back to see it again, but I think she would probably go with her girl friends next time....i think I slowed her down too much on the Sunday when she wanted to go shopping!!!!! :)

The photos I took over the weekend weren't very good, but not to worry.

On the way down we stopped at a motorway services (Oxford I think), it was very posh!!! I took a photo of it before anyone else from the bus got there, and then changed it to B&W

Here they are........













I think that the B&W photo shows more of the detail of the wood on the chairs and is more of the sort of photo you might see in a magazine to show off the "atmosphere"






I couldn't believe it when I read Cheryl's email for the final week, it was almost like a re-run of assignment 3 for me, as I had converted photos to B&W for that assignment as well :)

Well, it is all over now!!!

Never mind, it was all good fun, and I have enjoyed it - but then I always enjoy going out and taking photos. However, I have now got the confidence to take my camera off Auto or "P" and use the Aperature/Shutter/Manual buttons more of the time. Although, if I am taking a "once in a lifetime" shot, I think I would still use"P" just to make sure I didn't waste the chance :)
