Why I love my Advanced Digital Photography class

So for those of you curious, my teacher liked the cake, Skittles, and Bread pictures. Makes sense since I spent more time cleaning them up after I posted them here. He wasn't really a fan of the others.

A Lot of times taking a class from this teacher is like going to an educational Stand-Up comedy act so the 4 hour class isn't really so much of a burden. Here are a few quotes from class last night:

"Shes a good Pea Holder!"
"It's not syrup if it's not maple. We're Americans!"
"Virginia is little, but there's people there. Let's help them out."
"Nobody's going to be the same again, chemically."
"It's good for your plumbing!"
"That's not pigs in a blanket, that's pigs in bondage!"

And some that were more instructional than funny for our next assignment which is Fashion Photography:
"What you wear is a statement of who you are and who you aren't."
"What you wear is defined by who you are, and who you are is defined by what you wear."

Sounds like a really fun and worthwhile class. where are you taking it? I've enjoyed your pictures so keep posting them even after your class is done. :D

Thanks. I'm taking it from the U. My teacher is Jim Fisher. I'm out of electives after this semester so I can't take another photog class next semester but I'm hoping that after this semester, I can get my camera cleaned and fixed and then keep taking tons of pictures. ;)

Nothing major is broken with the camera, it's just some of the buttons and functionality have stopped working because of rough treatment - I have work-arounds to get me through the semester. :)
