Big ol' csb incoming.

Our teacher actually got swapped without me knowing it (thank god). We now have a pretty cool old fart who seems to really know his stuff.

We have to take and print 36 4x6 photo's this week then select our best four to be graded/critique. I'm scared out of my mind lol.

Then we have to do 2-3 8x10 prints per week on various topics like panning, depth of field, shutter speed etc.

Should be pretty sweet and I think it will push me a ton, especially this first project.

Seems like a really cool class!
Does your new teacher have a web site so we can appreciate his work too? :)

He doesn't have one listed on the faculty website and he didn't mention one. I'll ask him next class.
