Please note: By filling out Form 1 you slow down the process of picture taking so that you notice what it is you are doing. Are you exposing the film correctly? Correct shutter speed? Correct f stop? A filled out form will help to pinpoint any problems you may be experiencing and to a large extent eliminate guesswork. Please keep in mind: Are you "filling up" the viewfinder with enough of the subject? Are you moving around enough for the best angle? Have you found an interesting pattern? A dramatic lighting situation? *If you photograph on campus you may use some of the plantings found there. phoasign 1
