2.3 Guitar with my sis

        Oh hey there! If I could describe this past week in one word it would be: eventful. Very eventful. Eventful, in a good and bad way. Let's just say there were several ups and downs I believe this week I have progressed. I am very slowly getting a hang of it. My sister has taught me several important techniques. I am amazed how much she knows. She taught me rhythm and how to connect everything together, such as cords. strumming patterns etc. In my opinion strumming pattern along with a certain cord was the hardest. I got frustrated and had to take a break from it and then I came back to try it again. This was the down side of things, getting frustrating and giving up for a while. 

        Along with Anna teaching me guitar, I was also able to listen to what she is personally working on. It seemed extremely complicated. I am amazed of what all she can do at a young age. My goal for this week was interpret cords better, and connect everything together. This somewhat happened, but also didn't. I progressed in this, but I wouldn't say I got it completely. Next week I am hoping to get this down. Hopefully, everything plays out well. 


Here is a picture of the area, of where my sister and I practice. (side note- this picture is extremely blurry due to the process in taking the picture and my camera)

      Welcome Back! This week I viewed other photographers work. I looked at the minor details within the photos. I looked at pictures before and after they were edited. The after's were lots better. Before they were dark and you couldn't see much detail. After, there was tons of light and color. I've learned that editing plays a huge role in how the photos looked. The photos with natural light before looked better than the photos with not lots of natural light after the photos were edited. It's amazing how much editing can make photos look so much better.      This week I had troubles finding new places or things to take photos of. I hope I can take pictures of my family next week. Since the days are getting shorter, I run out of evening light. Summer definitely has some of the best lighting. I need to learn how to take photos in the winter and with gray skies.           Since this week I looked at before and  after's, I'...

Guitar with my sis 2.6

Above is the guitar I practice with!     Oh hey there friends! Today marks the 6th week of my journey to learning to play the guitar. I can say it has gotten better, but definitely not where I want to be. Last week I practiced strumming patterns along with cords, and this week I continued to do this. I feel that it is important to master the fundamentals before getting to the more challenging aspects.      This week I started to improve a little. I have gotten through songs with very little pauses and mess ups. I wasn't able to practice as much as I wanted to this week due to everything that's been going on. I plan to get more time these upcoming weeks to practice. My sister and I play together at times, but normally she is just teaching me. I am still trying to perfect the basics of guitar. However, you have to start somewhere! One day I hope I can be as good as my sister.      My goals this week have been somewhat accomplished, but due to the li...

      Hello again! Welcome back to week four of Photography Phaves! This week I had some troubles finding lighting, as the weather is getting colder, and there isn't as much sunlight. I have been searching ways to get good lighting during the colder seasons. My camera I borrowed also ran out of battery and I don't think there is a charger I can borrow, so I will have to purchase a charger. I took photos of animals this week and a couple other varieties. This week's photos turned out okay, but not as good as I would've liked them to. This week definitely was a learning week, as I experienced some struggles. I'm hoping that I can fix them next week. I hope later I can take photos of people, and learn ways to take photos of them.      Here are some photos from this week! See you soon!
