Essential The Official Photography Thread

Was going to ask if any of you are doing a 365 this year. (Nice work btw @GoldenGlove) I completed one in 2011 ... then pretty much neglected my camera for most of last year, so decided to start one up for this year. Just after 6 days I'm remembering why I love photography. Finding photos to take though is . Forgot how some days you just can't seem to find anything to photography that's seemingly worthwhile.

I'll drop some recent photos when I finish editing these family pictures from Christmas. Moms been on my case about seeing them.

Anyone know of any good photography schools? I need to put this military G.I. Bill to use.

• School of the Art Institute of Chicago

• San Francisco Art Institute

• Maryland Institute College of Art

• California Institute of the Arts

Pretty much an art school, however most colleges even at the community college level offer photography related degrees/certificates and classes.
Even tho im in school for engineering, im taking a photography related class next semester, so even if you want a degree in something else, you can take some photo classes on the side.

Nice pics. How long did you set the exposure for the water one?

Ah, cool.

There's a fountain that resembles that pretty close to my apartment ... might take something similar. Love how those lights turned out as well.

Yeah a longer exposure will cause the lights to bleed kinda, and give that star/twilight effect..if you are having trouble achieving a longer exposure, drop the iso, and shrink the aperture....good luck and post the results
