Before I dive into this assignment, I thought I'd take a moment and introduce myself. I'm Melanie, I live in Central PA, and I have 2 dogs and a crazy horse who will likely be the subjects of many of my PHORE assignments. I'm a complete newbie with cameras. My pictures will be taken on my point-and-shot Panasonic DMC-TZ1. Again....I'm a newbie, so bear with me as I try to learn new techniques!<br /><br />While this is the Week 2 assignment, I didn't sign up for Week 1, so this technically is my first assignment. I thought that I would have a perfect opportunity to both freeze and convey motion this weekend as we spent 3 days with some friends at Deep Creek Lake, MD. I think that I got some great "freeze" pictures, but trying to convey motion was pretty much a complete FAIL. I didn't have time to research how to do this on my camera, and it was really frustrating that, even after playing with all of the settings, I still couldn't get the shots that I was trying for. I may have to do this assignment again in the future.<br /><br />That said...here are some of my favorite pictures from this weekend!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyG9XxHJI/AAAAAAAAAAc/-BGGf8GH-Kg/s1600-h/Picture+045.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyG9XxHJI/AAAAAAAAAAc/-BGGf8GH-Kg/s320/Picture+045.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365531101193378962" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyGtRMltI/AAAAAAAAAAU/ckqJ1d7E-3M/s1600-h/Picture+035.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyGtRMltI/AAAAAAAAAAU/ckqJ1d7E-3M/s320/Picture+035.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365531096870852306" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYzYvOGL-I/AAAAAAAAAA8/8oIabeuvOsM/s1600-h/Picture+089.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYzYvOGL-I/AAAAAAAAAA8/8oIabeuvOsM/s320/Picture+089.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365532506143993826" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyHHgDPgI/AAAAAAAAAAk/QR0QPrma-38/s1600-h/Picture+052.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyHHgDPgI/AAAAAAAAAAk/QR0QPrma-38/s320/Picture+052.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365531103912476162" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYzY13FFFI/AAAAAAAAABE/Ik4Ff4QsCtE/s1600-h/Picture+092.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYzY13FFFI/AAAAAAAAABE/Ik4Ff4QsCtE/s320/Picture+092.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365532507926500434" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYwGAqxXNI/AAAAAAAAAAM/dejQV2QFYf0/s1600-h/Picture+026.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYwGAqxXNI/AAAAAAAAAAM/dejQV2QFYf0/s400/Picture+026.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365528885875268818" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyH5D7tnI/AAAAAAAAAA0/3h5-Qj6bq2Q/s1600-h/Picture+068.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyH5D7tnI/AAAAAAAAAA0/3h5-Qj6bq2Q/s320/Picture+068.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365531117216314994" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyHpyAPfI/AAAAAAAAAAs/uWESOKWsMyQ/s1600-h/Picture+053.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYyHpyAPfI/AAAAAAAAAAs/uWESOKWsMyQ/s320/Picture+053.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365531113114582514" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYzZSaq-XI/AAAAAAAAABM/zCmHDabgdAs/s1600-h/Picture+149.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYzZSaq-XI/AAAAAAAAABM/zCmHDabgdAs/s320/Picture+149.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365532515591977330" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYzZgH8F-I/AAAAAAAAABU/zUNGn0FLch8/s1600-h/Picture+129.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6J6jTtdBc10/SnYzZgH8F-I/AAAAAAAAABU/zUNGn0FLch8/s320/Picture+129.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365532519271503842" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7755463737930723869-5307269732038690521?l=beyphotos.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>MelPSUhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16733031021556790606noreply@blogger.com3
