Thank you for taking part in a beginning digital photography class. You have experienced many photography challenges designed to enhance your understanding of art, the language of art, and seeing the world differently through the use of digital photography as a communications tool.
More importantly, you have explored an exciting way to share your vision of the world with others through producing imagery, researching and recording your experiences using a visual journal.
I encourage you to continue your exploration and use digital technology, and other forms of art, to help express yourself creatively with an overarching goal of making our world a better place through art.
With a passionate eye, sharing your work, and striving to be a life long learner, you have the opportunity to savor the quiet moments with a single click of a shutter. If you desire you also have the opportunity to celebrate your experiences with others around the world with your unique photographic vision. With a camera, you also have the opportunity to change hearts and minds with a single click of a shutter.
Whatever creative direction or career path you choose using digital photography do it with a zest for life and love for others. In the end, it is entirely up to you where you want photography to take you.
If you have enjoyed your experience please consider taking a different digital arts class, even if you don’t need the art credit. Taking time out of your busy day to reflect and be creative is good for the soul.
Have a great summer and remember to have fun, but be safe.
I look forward to seeing many of you this fall, either in class or at school, for the 2019-20 school year.
