I am also teaching Multimedia II at Lutie R-VI High School this year. I received my bachelors degree in Technology Management and I am working on a masters degree at this time.

Taking Your Best Shot

Take a look at the three samples that I have provided for your first day in class. How could I have improved on the quality of my photos? Think about composition, lighting, subject matter and overall appeal.

I have given you hints in the captions. We will discuss these types of things when viewing your photos that you bring to class. I chose these photos from thousands of photos that I have on my computer. Yes, thousands of photos reside on my hard drive and I can usually find what I want in an hour or so, just kidding. I will help you keep your files in order so you can find what you want when you want it, promise.
