Well, I finally came to a phase in photography that I don't seem to be developing anymore. In fact, I seem to be making a lot of very basic mistakes and I'm worried that I'm regressing. So, I decided that it might be time to get outside help and enrolled in the New York Institute of Photography's Professional Photographer programme.

Since I've somehow managed to cram my calendar full to the brim, I haven't gotten off to a very good start with the programme. But the first three courses are done and as soon as I get the fourth one done then I can do my first test. Even better than that, though, is that I took the first photo for my first photo project. The theme of the photo is speed so I went to a roller derby bout and took the shot there. I'm actually rather happy with the result. Now I just have to take the other two photos, do the test and I'm on a roll, yay!
