This Week's Featured Animals

     Happy Friday, everyone!  I hope you enjoy looking through these pictures.  I had a chance to meet some incredibly sweet and loving animals this week!  This week, I became more confident as I photographed the animals.  Not all of my pictures turned out perfect; however, I found it much easier to edit the photographs this week.  I can imagine that every week of editing photographs will mean more confidence and growth in my abilities.  We had a face-to-face photography class on May 23rd and were able to ask individual questions with our professor.  I had noticed a yellow tint to my photographs and after talking with my professor, she took a look at my camera and decided it was a setting on the camera.  The May 20th photographs still have a tint to them even though I used the color correcting tool on Photoshop.  My professor informed me that if the pictures have this yellow tint that even Photoshop could not correct these....Camera Raw would have to help with that.  After class on Wednesday, I went back to the Wake County Animal Center and took photographs and these did not have a yellow tint.  I was very excited.  I hope you enjoy looking through the photographs of the animals animals that I got to know this week!
