New Year, New Quarter

It hardly seems possible that one quarter of my photography training at the Art Institute of San Antonio is behind me.   11 weeks flies by and I was so absorbed by shooting pictures for assignments as well as drawing assignments that I let the blog languish for several weeks.   

In the new year as I start winter quarter I will devote myself to learning lighting for photography as well as digital image manipulation.    I also have a class that will emphasize the composition and design of photographs.   Most of the time I am really looking forward with anticipation to the new year, but on the other hand I often feel that I should be making progress faster.  I'm not getting any younger.   I vow to be more consistent in 2015 with this blog and the beginning of my business--in whatever form that may be.

I went to the George W. Bush Institute yesterday and was inspired by the former President's words from September 20, 2001 as he addressed a Joint Session of Congress, "We will not tire, We will not falter,  We will not fail."   I want that to be my motto, along with the country's philosophy!   Best of luck to everyone in your endeavors in 2015.
