Hello to all those new budding photographers that received cameras for Christmas, what a great gift!! Now that you have the equipment, it's time to put it to use. Our new digital cameras come with a lot of bells and whistles, some of them make sense and some don't. That is where I can help you with a One-On-One Photography Class. Treat yourself to learning how to use your new DSLR in a One-On-One Class with me guiding you through basic principles of photography and making sure you know what all of those buttons do for you. You can go to my website at www.LeslieWilkesPhotography.com and look at my specials for the new year and purchase directly from there, to make the process as easy asd possible. Please call (615-585-4531) or e-mail (Leslie-Wilkes@att.net) me with any questions or concerns. It does not matter if you got $6,000.00 dollar camera or a $200.00 camera, they all work off the same basic principles of exposure, and I want to make sure you understand how that principle works to enable you to take and make great photographs. Again, Happy New Year, and let's keep those cameras out of "Auto" mode.

Here are some photos that Mike took on his African Photo-Safari. I thought I would share them with you so you can see why he took my One-On-One Photography class. Leslie, Got back from Africa a few days ago and I'm still going through the 2500+ pictures from the trip but I thought I'd share a few of the ones that I think came out pretty well. Haven't started playing with Lightroom yet so these are just cropped and touched up in Picasa. I shot everything in RAW but I didn't figure you really wanted 100 meg of attachments. Thanks again, it was well worth the money. Mike J.
