ISO, filters, and shutter speed
Aperture, depth of field are foreign to me
Feeling frustrated with all the new vocabulary
Searching for connections and knowing that I need
Time to process, practice and hands on learning to see
How to understand my camera and have it apply to ME
I was given a DSLR camera a few years back. I took a camera class at the local community college. I was lost for most of it. So many seemed to understand all those settings and they produced some great shots. I did walk away know how to create better shots and I now mostly just use my phone.

Sweet verse. I’ve given up my 35 ml camera in favor of constantly snapping with my phone.

I am very much in this same place! You’re not alone! I am trying to figure all of the vocab, angles, lighting and setting out. It’s difficult.

Persist! That is my advice. Just like our kids learning noun/verb, perimeter/area, vowel/consonant. You don’t have to know it but you will understand all so much more! My advice, get a book to help you!
