I originally wanted to take this course to learn the basics of photography and how to pay further attention to details in order to produce high quality images. I wanted to gain more experience in photography and learn about the elements to create a successful photo. My goals also included learning how to be creative when taking photos and what techniques I should be doing to enhance a photo. I do think I achieved my goals from the beginning of the semester because now when taking photos, I am more aware of different aspects I can incorporate in order to make a photograph better and I have learned how to focus on different composition, lighting, and color to make my photos stand out more due to the attention to detail.
