I Clicked it Up a Notch – July 2012

Spread the love

Oh my I can’t believe I’m doing this, but I am :).

About about 2 weeks ago I stumbled across a blog called Click It Up a Notch.  Holy friggin cow!  Things started making sense to me!  I read through her posts, they are in layman’s terms that I understood.  After 2 days of reading, I went home, put my camera on Manual, told my husband I wanted to take photos, and I have yet to take it back of Manual.  I’m not going to say I ALWAYS get good photos… heck no, but I have surprised myself still.  They’re even better than what I thought!  Now I wasn’t on “auto” persay, I was on P.  If you own a Nikon, you’ll understand.  I’m not sure if Canon’s have that option or not.  It was like the Manual auto, because it didn’t kick the flash on unless you wanted it to.

Anyway I saw they are having a photography contest.  Crazy me is sharing a photo.  Oy!  I’m a bit nervous.  This was done in Manual.  It was from the very first night I had my camera on manual.  I LOVE this photo.  I have it in color & black & white.  I’m not sure which I like better, so I’m just choosing this one.

This is my entry :).

  1. I love the contrast with the black and white! It has been a year since I switched to manual after finding Click it Up a Notch and I can't believe all I have learned. Thank you for sharing and good luck on your journey!

  2. Good luck for the contest! I haven't yet tried my camera on the manual settings. I have a canon though. I definitely plan on reading up and going to manual soon.

  3. That is SUCH a good picture!! You will have to tell us how to vote for you! I need to remember that site, and attempt to use our nice camera.
