Reunion Day

Last Saturday was 'Family Reunion ' day.What a great time to practice what I learnt in class! So armed with my digital camera I was the photographer of the day. As I proceeded to take out several pictures the pointers Aisha shared with us came back to mind.Don't forget the thirds! One subject per picture! I was having a wonderful time. I started showing the photos to anyone who ventured by. Not only that, here I was imparting my new found knowledge. They were impressed. Some members agreed with me and tried them out.

My mother (God bless her) happen to pass by during one of these moments.She paused awhile to observe the photos and she agreed that they looked really well. After a few moments she exclaimed loudly, "Pictures, pictures, pictures you all always taking out pictures. I am fed up with all this picture taking because you all don't even print them". I was taken aback by her outburst but had to admit that she was quite correct.The images either remained in the camera or copied to some flash drive and stored in some place where we forget about them. I made a mental note to get these pictures developed because as you know these photos can tell stories that we sometimes we forget. Thanks to Microsoft Photostory 3 and Cherisse.
