I have been going over my assignments, making sure I have all the photos I need, they're due on July 21st. I just knew if I didn't start looking at them now, I would find myself missing something or worse, have a better idea and it be too late to execute it.
Sure enough, I was missing one assignment completely: shoot at a slow shutter speed and a fast shutter speed making sure that the photos show which was which. I had done a slow one but neglected to take the fast one.
So I spent Saturday night doing my homework, it was probably the first Saturday night of my life where I spent my time doing homework ;-). I just about lost my marbles trying to get it right.
Happy Macro Monday!

Your marble shots are great but that first is magnificent. I love the clarity and how it seems to reflect the roof of a house. The second one seems to reflect a window. I'm sure it's just my imagination working overtime. Well done. Have a great night.

I'm glad I'm not the only person that takes 200 shots of one thing trying to get it right. I think you have this one in the (marble) bag.

I'd say you're going to get an A+ on this assignment!

My sense is that you have an excellent presentation for this homework. I love the first image. I also enjoy your sense of humor!

Great capture! I love how you can see all the detail in the first photo too.

200 pictures of a marble made me laugh.
I can't wait to take a photography class next year!

Ha, that's funny. I thought for a moment the top one was a snow globe. I like it. I'd give you an A...
