This is gonna be a good week. Guess what's coming up?! CHRISTMAS! AHHHH! My favorite time of the year. Do you like Christmas? Do you have any special traditions? Do you hate Christmas? Why? Oh boy, we could spend hours and hours talking about Christmas.. But alas we have work to do.
Here's what's on the agenda for next week.
1. Take your camera outside for at least 30-60 minutes and snap away. Take portraits, close-ups, textures/backgrounds (ones you could use for compositing images), landscapes, stars, animals, architecture. In essence, whatever you'd like. I just want you to get out and shoot!
2. Make any image adjustments on the photos you like the best and upload to your blog. You should be uploading your best 7-14 best photographs. Keep in mind though that the images you upload should only showcase your best work.
3. Go and comment on each photograph of your classmates! Be specific. Find a couple things you especially like and something you think could be improved. I know I've hounded this in, but I'll say it again. Don't say, "I really like this..." or "This is really cool...", as standalone sentences. Why do you like it? What kind of emotion did they capture? What do you think of the composition? If it's beautiful, how is it gorgeous? Articulate, articulate, articulate.

And one more thing, PLEASE pay attention to your grammar. I think you guys know how to spell and use periods and commas by this point.
4. Have fun!
