One Step Forward, Two Steps Back?

     So finally I chose the style that I want my portfolio to be in. I have it all pretty much planned out and I am relatively happy with it.
    Unfortunately I feel like I am not doing as much as I could be for my project. I have been reading my fellow classmates blogs and it seems to me that I am on track but that I seem to be working on my project in large amounts and then not working on it for a couple of days. And maybe thats ok because I have been getting lots done but I want to try to work on my project a little bit every day and still do the large portions on the weekends. That is one of my goals for the rest of the week.
      I also am realizing that my idea for the large collage is not going to happen unless I start talking pictures all the time. I also need to start planning out the collage so that I can take pictures with that in mind. I am going to polo tonight so I will bring my camera and hopefully get some good shots in the barn.
   I really want to make this project a success so I need to start doing even more for my project. We'll see how it goes as the week finishes.

YAY!! iLife '11

       YAY!!!!!!!! My Dad just came home with the new iLife '11. I am so happy right now! This means that I can start putting my portfolio together. Thanks Dad!
        One of the big things I was concerned with is that I would leave all of actual planning of the portfolio til the end of the year. Now I can get a rough idea of how I want it. Also this will allow me to make changes through out the semester.

Here is my picture of the week:
Well, I think I have two; here is the first.
    I really like that only the outline of this horse is visible. Some of its muscles are visible but the majority of the horse is left dark. Even though most of the horse is dark I'm still able to make out the shape of this horse. I think this picture really brings out the grace and beauty of the shape of a horse.

       Unfortunately I have not been able to find my other picture. I don't know if it got deleted or what but I will continue looking for it and if I find it I will post it immediately!

So over the weekend I have been exploring the new iPhoto that was updated by iLife '11. It is really nice. Now with the older version of iPhoto the ability to make a book was there but choices were limited. Now there are about 20 themes to choose from and each page can be formatted to fit 1 - 4 pictures on it. I have narrowed the themes down to two so hopefully I will choose one soon so that I can start putting all my pictures in.

    This week I hope to finalize the theme for my portfolio, as well as insert the pictures. There is also polo on Wednesday so I think I will end up photographing instead of riding like usual. I also want to get started on my collage project as I have yet to start that. I really don't want to leave that till the last minute because with how I'm envisioning it, it will be a huge project.
