Today I fought my fatigue and won. I went out and shot some images even though all I felt like doing was laying down. One thing about IPS classes is that they teach you a whole lot in a very short period of time. It is very focused and intense, which is a good thing. The problem is that I tend to learn something new and plateau. I go home and make changes in my approach but I forget everything past that point. For example, before I took any classes I mostly shot on auto modes...okay so I only shot on auto modes! When I was at pwp I learned about the more creative controls but I came home and stayed in Program mode. Seriously. It was great, I could control my pop up flash, white balance, and ISO like a pro but I didn't go any farther. Now I am working hard to get out of that slump and fully learn the other creative options. Instead of just rarely using Time value or aperture priority I am shooting on them or full manual whenever I can get away with it. Today I shot only manual. I did a lot of bracketing so I can move repricosity (sp?) from the deep recesses of my brain to an unconscious and complete knowledge of what it really means.
I know that some of you understood very little of what I just wrote but that is ok. The important thing is that I actually know what all of that meant. Praise the Lord! We are getting somewhere!!
