Updates - New Camera

Hey Guys,

So I wanted to post a quick update. I went out shooting last week and they look good so far. I haven't had a chance yet to go through them, pick out specific ones, and edit them yet but hopefully I'll have some shots up in the next week.

More great news, I got a great Cannon camera bundle from Amazon :    http://www.amazon.com/T5-Camera-75-300mm-Telephoto-Accessory/dp/B00OR80KZQ/ref=pd_rhf_gw_p_img_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1GZ3SB5JC3VTJAXTT4Z6

and I found a Cannon shutter release clicker which I should have gotten soon but it's going to come in handy for shots that need precise timed exposures instead of trouble shooting a ten second timer.

Finally, I have been reading more into the book and it's such a great read because its so logical and well thought out. Some of the things mentioned in the book are so practical because we've been following methods of developing photographic series' since as early as Photo II.

Schwartz mentions the protocol to what a body of photographs consist of. She organizes the topics in an interesting order from project development to getting recognized in gallery showings; the what to do and what not to do. I found it awesome that there are such places as residency programs because it made me think about a time after graduation when you're not always in a photo class, what can you do to get the creative juices flowing again. It's as if these programs are like retreats to get away and focus on your work and that's awesome that exists.

I like that she identifies Artist Statements and Project Statements because they go hand in hand but help clarify matters from the artist to the project. I found the whole section on Artist Statement to be helpful especially with examples on good statements verses bad statements.

So that's all I've got for now, but I'm really excited about this series I'm making. I plan on going out several times this up coming week and having a good couple of images picked, edited, and ready to presented on here.

Thanks Guys!
