I am attempting something I have attempted to do several times in the past. I have attempted to push myself outside my comfort level, creatively and/or academically. I am neither creative or academic but I can fake my way through both. Tonight I may have finally pushed myself outside my comfort/ability level.
In a moment of boredom and need of getting out of the cul-de-sac I signed up for a Street Photography class. I have walked on many streets around the world and always want to take better, more interesting photographs. Why not take a class and learn? Hey...I just visited the Museum of Modern Art in NYC and feel all cultured and artistic so maybe I can do this.

You make me laugh! Those people nodding their heads and "appearing" to know what is being talked about and posers! (I say in love & support!). I believe the key to an awesome photograph is to see and capture the opportunity. You've taken at least one photography class before, so you know focus, speed, light and (surely there is something else, but since I haven't taken the class....). Use what you've got. I can't wait to see what you create!
All of the above is me saying, "The most expensive golf club won't make the shot, you will" Shoot away, cousin!!
Carol, you are too smart! The instructor did point out (hehe) that good photography is pouncing on "that" moment when you see it. I'll get over my equipment envy and will definitely learn and hopefully catch a few moments along the way.
