Once my friend Felicity started giving me more tips and teaching me what settings to Adjust and when to adjust them, I started to feel more confident with the pictures I was taking. I haven't yet met with my mentor because she just recently got engaged so she has been very busy lately. I talked to her last week and we are planning on meeting towards the end of this month.
One harder thing about this whole thing, is that sometimes I'll be driving somewhere like to school or church etc and I'll see something really nice and wish that I would have taken my camera along. It's weird because half the time I see something beautiful, I don't have my camera with me. For example, one Sunday I was on the way to church with my dad. We were passing along the red river and the way the sun was shining on the water, and the colourful leaves in the background was beautiful. I wished I would have taken my camera with me!
A couple weeks ago my family and I decided to take a trip to Saskatchewan. I told myself that I had to bring my camera with me, just in case! And I'm glad I did. We were about 3/4 of the way there when the sun was setting. We had decided to take a more scenic route, and I happened to look out the window at the right time, for there was one of the most beautiful and colourful sunsets I have ever seen, setting over a body of water. It was beautiful! I took a few pictures, and they turned out decent. Here is my favourite one:
