Getting to know my Canon T5i

Learning to shoot in manual mode on a DSLR camera for the first time has been nothing short of a challenge for me this past month. Lighting is constantly changing at every angle and this has forced me to really spend some quality time with my 3 new best buds; ISO, F-stop, and Shutter Speed. Getting them to work together nicely not only produces a great image but also sets a specific tone, a mood, an ambiance. You get the picture (no pun intended). My goal is to continue to grow in the art of reciprocity to create a image that evokes an emotion and a response in the viewer. As a photojournalist, this art form must be perfected to a tee so as to be able to capture as many quality images, in a short time span and on short notice, as possible. Wish me luck!
