Assignment: SCHOOL'S OUT

As soon as we got this assignment a whole week ago, I knew right away what I wanted to do. But I couldn't do it until school was actually out. I volunteered every morning this last school year at SMS, so that is where I headed to get my shots. It was kinda' sad not to see the halls filled with the kids.

Ya' gotta' love 'em! It is hard to catch an otter not in action. They have such entertaining moves and sweet faces!

I agree with Pat! Nature provides every subject we can possibly image for our photo challenges. The hunt is the most fun homework I have ever had! I will look for more in nature for this assignment.

Pat and I decided that cloudy days are best for landscape; probably for any kind of photo. This is not news to professional photographers...we just had to wait for that "ah-hah!" moment to hit!
