I have learned so much in my studies. I never knew there were so many little details in taking pictures. I have had the most fun with alternative processes like cyanotypes, tintypes and such. I remember the first time I came out of the dark room with an 11x14 print from a large format negative (4"x5"). I wanted to cry because the detail in the grays were so beautiful!
The part that I think was the most difficult was all the digital work. Memorizing all of the short cuts and tools in Photoshop, along with building web pages and getting a crash course in Graphic Design. I feel like I grew the most in those areas in my last semester. You know the old saying, you get a hang of it right before it's over, kind of thing.
Over all, I had a wonderful experience with awesome teachers! I am so happy that Jeremiah (my wonderfully supportive husband) told me to go for the gold and get a degree in Commercial Photography. It has been what I have wanted for a long time. And who knows maybe I will miss sweating over projects so much that I have to get a Bachelors.....maybe one day.

Congratulations on having your degree work finished. Your photography is wonderful. I'm so pleased with the "Happy Sixty" photos you took last May.
Have fun not finishing school projects and doing homework.
