So...I've almost finished my adult ed photography class - last one this Monday evening. On Saturday we had a 'field Trip' to
Cornelian Bay. We were encouraged to have a good look around and 'frame up' some photos in our mind's eye before taking any for real photographs.Then to think about the settings for the camera.
We then 'losely' followed a track that took us from the playground around behind the boatsheds to a tiny little beach which gives you a beautiful view of the Tasman Bridge and Derwent River. We walked up over a slight rise and came back along the train tracks. I have to admit this isn't really my thing to take photos of landscapes etc but it was a good day out. In all, I took about 150 photos (27 I like!!) which is no where near as many as everyone else. After we finished a few of us enjoyed a hot drink at the Boathouse (yummo).
When others revealed they had taken 200, 300, 350 photos I immediately thought...oops. But you know what? there's only so much you can photograph in one spot :) Plus I was thinking of having to go through them all at home to choose some to print for our last class. I was actually nicely surprised with some of the pics, I might even enlarge a couple and put them up somewhere!
I'll post the ones I like best.
The last one is my favourite I think.
What do you think?
I welcome feedback and constructive criticism,
helpful hints etc, it all helps.

I think they are fantastic. I want to take a class like this. Seriously. You are awesome!
I love ALL pictures! U're a great photographer. Wish someone could teach me...
I love the third picture, black and white with the corrugated iron and ladder going into the water. Cool Blanche!
You are really good Blanche! I love the second one - of the two buildings together and the round windows. Well done.
I don't think these are very good, and I don't think you should bother to enlarge any of them... but you know, do whatever you want...!!
ok, so seriously, these look GREAT!! I really like the last one too!!
LOVE the second and third pics... gorgeous!!!
Your classes sound like fun...think it's nearly time for me to check it all out :)
I like the colour in the 2nd pic and the last one is kewl too!
thanks for all the positive comments everyone.
We'll see what the teacher says when I present them at my class tomorrow night. The most frustrating thing is that we can't digitally enhance them at all, so no Photoshop or editing allowed! wish me luck :)
Awesome Blanche!

hope your final class went well. Looks like you really have gained a lot from it and your photos are great. My 1st favourite is the third pic (black and white), 2nd fav- the second one down, 3rd fav- green plant.
well done, you're very clever.
