Good morning my fine intarweb friends.

I would like to start this post on a positive note: My photography class is teh awesome. I learned more in the first class than I have in 2 years of trying to figure this out on my own.

The next thing I have to talk to you about is Rock Band 2. I finally picked it up last night and Echols, Jordan and

EH? photography class? Do tell! Are you taking Tom Geislers class at UT? If so say hi for me from "the really tall guy". If its a different class then please elaborate so that I can sign up too :)

Hey do me a huge favor if you dont mind... let me know what day and time your class is having its field trips (we had 2, so im assuming you will too). Push for Cades Cove lol, I didnt get to go on that one... Geisler said that we could go back and retake either a class day or a field trip at any time. This way we could also swap out lenses if there's one of mine you'd like to try.

The first one it tentatively scheduled for October 4th and I think it is going to be Cades Cove.

I'd be all over some lens swapping. I only have 3, really: the 18-55 kit lens, a 28(?)-90 and a 100-200. I'll have to look when I get home and make sure that's right.

I've only got 3 right now too... the Canon 17-40 f/4, Canon 10-22 f/3.5-4.5 and a Sigma 105mm f/2.8 macro (which actually focuses to infinity quite fine too and makes for a sharp portrait lens). I plan on plunking down the big money on a Canon 100-400mm in December. If you'd like to swap or borrow something for a week or a day let me know. I remember a couple of the initial homework assignments involved depth of field study, and the 105 2.8 is excellent for that (since also being a macro lens it stops down to get huge dof as well as being a bright and narrow 2.8 wide open). I'm serious about going on those field trips too... so the weekend after next... and if its cades cove it would have to be on a sunday since the park is closed to motor vehicles on sat morning. I didnt get to do the cades cove trip last time. Keep in touch about that :)
