I often feel at a disadvantage when I think about how I just discovered my pashion for photography over the summer right before my senior year. There are so many things I could have learned if I had discovered it more quickly, like my sophomore year for example. Now it is too late to take the photography classes my school has to offer and learn so much. I feel a lot like a fish out of water and it has me very nervous and frightened. I almost feel like an idiot with a camera, but I take good pictures, right? I wish I would even post half of the portraits I take on here, but there are so many. Just recently I got a SLR camera. Before I was working with a Nikon Coolpix L100, which I am greatful for. I feel very far behind and I do not like it one bit. I keep trying to find websites with scraps of information to help me out and I barely find anything without it costing outragious amounts of money and if I do find something for free the information is not enough. There is no detail. I try to think "slow and steady wins the race," but I want to know the information now! I want to feel secure about myself. I don't want to go to college looking stupid. I don't want people asking why I am in the room if I do not know half the things they already know. I just do not know. I am at a loss.
