Practice, practice, practice, it does help. Some thoughts about doing a 365 project… do it with some friendly folks and notice how you see the world differently, how taking pictures becomes a habit, how your hands get muscle memory for your camera.

The wonderful Flickr group of TWIP Family listeners who I’m doing my 365 project with:

Jenny Stein made me do it. Her TWIP Family podcast:

Update! In November 2016 Jenny moved from TWIP to publish her own podcast “The Family Photographer” here:

Sometimes tough lighting situations require more control over the settings than aperture or shutter priority allow. Jumping into manual settings, for photographic control freaks.

Sometimes you just can’t frame the picture you want in camera. So you have to crop. I do, anyway.

Some folks mentioned today:

Monika Andrae – Moni’s Motivklingel

Rick Sammon – Digital Photo Experience

Jenny Stein – TWIP Family

Kathy Sierra – Serious Pony

The first thing I was excited to learn about taking pictures: aperture, and by extension, bokeh. Plus some thoughts about printing photos and the most special photos of all: “snapshots” of your loved ones.

How to pronounce “bokeh” according to Martin Bailey:
