Final Assignments

We finished the course and had our 1 day of fame by being able to hang some of our work in the ACP (Australian Centre of Photography). Well it was upstairs in the class rooms rather than the very high brow galleries downstairs!! But still, sounds good to say that we've exhibited there!!
The exhibition lasted all of a day due to the builders coming in to decorate the rooms and the staff haviung to take down our work as there was alot of dust around! Good while it lasted.
Here's comes the gallery.... sing the theme tune to "Take Hart", all those old enough to know what I'm taking about! You know who you are.

Here are a few shots that we've taken since doing our course. We can't post everything - I think it would overload the blogspot, and most of them wouldn't be that interesting to you!
We had our last 'lesson' yesterday. We had to take an exam! Well, it was a pretty relaxed affair, but nevertheless, it's been a while since I sat a test! We handed in our final assignment which was a selection of shots from a theme of our choice. We mounted them as they will be shown in a mini exhibition at the centre (only upstairs in the workshop rooms, not in their gallery)! We’ve had homework every week! The assignments basically give you the practice after the theory of the classroom. We feel like we’re really improving and have finally taken the camera off automatic and put it on manual!! There’s been a mix of people on the course and we've got on really well. Despite it being a beginner’s course, I did expect everyone to have more experience than me, but they hadn’t. One guy had bought his camera an hour before the first class started! So it was a nice to discover that we were all in the same boat! It's a shame it's now ended. We intend to do the next course, but not sure how many of this group will do the same.

Amazing fig tree roots
