Week 1 here we come

For week one I went down to a paddock near my Mum and Dads house ( while they looked after little one). I went there in the early evening at about 4pm. It is Autumn here now so the light was fading fairly quickly I felt.

I did the tasks in order for some reason- maybe it was just the way I remembered them.

I found this tree which I loved the look of. I have to say I am not convinced it makes a good landscape photograph. On that note,  I noticed I was not as excited about doing this task because it was landscape, I much prefer family photography.
I thought about not placing the tree in the centre of the photo but decided to do it for several reasons:
1- I loved how the clouds were forming in this shot.
2- There were power lines I was trying to avoid in the shot
3- Well I can't remember now but I know at the time there was a three.

For this task I chose to also do it at the same place. I found this task easier than the above one for some reason, Not sure why.

For the final task for the week I chose to use the dog as a subject. I have to say it was hard keeping her still.




This has nothing to do with the tasks for the week however I am looking for opinions on some work I did this weekend. I am partially taking this course to see if I have any talent in doing family photography and start to set up a portfolio with a view to a business. Good friends of my husband and mine agreed to be subjects for me. Stacey was a trooper considering she is having awful morning sickness at the moment.
