Portfolio ~ Starting Off

Well, our first submissions are due and here is my first attempts.  All of them were taken in my front yard.  I don't think this will work as a portfolio since the flowers, mushrooms and bees will be gone in a short while. Well, except maybe my Fiddlewood bush.  It's going to be hard choosing since we are trying to sell our house, buy a new one, and hopefully, be moving soon.

It had rained during the night and I got up at sunrise to take the photos.  I like the drops on the plumeria.  I had more mushrooms in my yard a few days before and there was only 2 left on this morning. The fiddlewood bush is always full of bees and all sorts of other insects.  It smells WONDERFUL which is why it's by my front door and window.  The colors on the plumeria sure turned out vibrant!

Starting Out

Well,

I'm taking a portfolio class and part of this class is to blog.  I am NOT into social media and have no idea how to use it. I don't like writing, either. So, here it goes.

I am trying to figure out what to use as a topic/theme for my class.  I really have a hard time making decisions because I have to thinking through everything and with the pros and cons and so many different things I like, I can't decide. I'd like to do macro photography, but don't have the lens.  I like nature, but even here in Florida the flowers and insects will be gone before this class is over. Right now we're practicing and learning about portfolios.  I have some photos to turn in, but I don't know if they'll even be like what I end up doing.
