After turning the Thinker of Hamangia at various angles, I tried another take at the homework for the photography course and shoot some balls. No, no that kind of balls, but shiny moving balls made from steel.

This week’s homework assignment for the photography course was to take photos of a subject from 3 different angles. I got the idea to shot a reproduction of the Hamangia Thinker and, as usually, went overboard and selected 6 angles (as the ultimate proof I don’t have self-control).

My home work for this week at the photography course is a self portrait so I have to experiment with a kind of photos I do rarely (I like to do portraits, not to myself). This is why here the focus is on the toys, the activity, not on my face.

Some weeks ago browsing aimlessly (I was looking at the price of various photo gear) I noticed the Photon Photography Course, the price looked right to me so I decided to enrol myself, trying to improve my skills. It started this week-end with a couple of theory lessons. Not something really new for me and not very deep, but basic knowledge for any photographer.
So after the first course, I made a couple of photo experiments showing the dependency if aperture size (F number) and the depth of field. The range of aperture values is not very large, just as my main (telephoto) lens allows (F3.5 is my limit):

"Digital Photography", volumes 1 and 2 in a boxed set, my latest purchase purchase: at the first sight, those books look good for beginners (I consider myself a beginner) they are a collection of tips, one on each page, illustrated with useful photos. And I think the price was good, 26.99$ plus transport (another 8$).
And this is a good recipe to make people happy: when I made the purchase on Amazon, the estimated delivery was 24 December, the next day when I received the shipping confirmation, the estimate moved to 29 December. I received the package on 15 December so I am happy (and very positive towards the postal service, which I used to curse at other times).
