Obviously my efforts on doing photos on my own had stopped. I needed to do something to get back on track with my photography - or I'd forget all I knew!
Saw the course offered by Ricky Tim's 52-week Challenge & I signed up.
His first assignment was a pre-challenge - just to get everyone used to the assignment, their cameras & uploading to his website. He uses the SmugMug website for his photos.
Pre-Challenge was to take a photo on the day of Winter Solstice (not before the day or after). I took this photo down the road from our place, on the lake. It was a VERY overcast day, but I liked the red chair on the shore - I would have gotten closer, but the rocks under the snow were covered in ice & very slippery!

The course information comes as an email every Sunday & you have until the next Sunday to upload.
Week 1 - Selective Focus
We had to take a picture with no flash and shallow depth of field.
I took this photo just the day I was putting Christmas decorations away.
f/2.8 with 1/80th exposure.
