That is correct.

The original intent and purpose of this class (as I saw it being laid out) was to help people with some of the fundamentals of shooting, especially with their cars (and other subjects as well with the information given). Since we are a car community, and people here share a love of their cars, this was originally made to help people that wanted to get some pictures of their vehicles so they could feel proud and appreciate their vehicles more.

You didn't have to be pro or even own a digital SLR (though, the class seemed more oriented towards D-SLR folks that either just got their camera or still trying to figure their camera out), but more of being able to get some good photos of your cars straight off the camera (p-chopping can be done later on to help "enhance" the photo, but without a good photo to start with, you will be editing a bad photo to an slightly okay photo). :thumbsup:

^Thanks!

I took about 50 pictures at the shoot I had today, and that turned out to be the best one. The others either turned out too light or too dark or the sun shined on my car too much.

Nice pic. I think it is a bit out of focus. Do you zoom in on your focus point to check focus?

Thanks man. And is it out of focus? It doesn't really seem like it, but no, I didn't check my focus point.

I haven't read other posts yet, but I'd totally be happy to participate in being a "student"
I took some photo classes in HS and it has always been a fun side hobby for me. I could use the practice and advice.

-edit

If it's not too late I'd like to join in. If not,it's no biggie.

I don't care about rules when it comes to photography...

I do whatever I want, shoot however I want...

also it's underexposed.
