Last Tues evening, your Mom and I attended our first digital photography class.
Among the many tips revealed that evening, our instructor gave two particular "words of wisdom", that he claimed he could NOT stress strongly enough.
No. 1.) Take Pictures EVERY day. (It kinda makes sense, the more you do of something, the better you become. or conversely, if you ONLY take photos on Birthdays and Holidays, how good might you become?)
NO. 2.) ALWAYS keep your camera with you. ALWAYS, ALWAYS! He shared instances when he couldn't capture a "great" photo opportunity, because he had no camera.
TODAY I had one of those #2 opportunities.
Was driving out to Portage County and there stuck in the Middle of Interstate 76, was an 18 Wheeler, and I was without my camera.
As you can see, I tried capturing the moment with my camera on my cell phone, but I didn't get a very good shot. (you can see it a little better if you double click on the photo)
As I drove further down the road, I felt very sorry for the driver. IF he has trouble keeping his truck within the white stripes on the highway in this weather, what's he going to do when the snow comes? Well, I suspect the answer might be; more sleep and/or more coffee.
