In photography I have enjoyed the experience of taking photos and working with classmates. The start of the class wasn’t the best for me due to me not doing my work. But, I did pay a little more attention and start to pick things up for a little. The only real challenge for me in this class was and is the google sites part of it. But, that’s only because I’m lazy. The class is very structured and straightforward but I am lazy and don’t do my work, hence why I didn’t do to well.

I had improved for a quick second when we transitioned over to the traditional photography. Then, I had gone back down again. I lost my film and never took new pictures to replace it, I lost the prints I had done somewhere in my bag, when I did make new prints I would forget to come get them, in conclusion I was just lazy. I am most proud of the fact that I learned how to take pictures, develop the film, and print pictures by myself. I think the lack of work illustrates my weaknesses as a learner. The only thing that might illustrate my strengths as a learner is how I did a little better when we switched, but that didn’t last long.

Overall this was a very fun class and Mr. Anderson is a very good teacher. The only reason I didn’t do well is because of myself. But, all of that aside I did learn many new skills like knowing what a picture should consist of, certain “rules” for taking a picture, how to use a camera, how to process and develop film, and how to print pictures from that film. Overall I am glad I took this class and had the experiences that I did.
