Weekly Photo Challenge (1)

As sad as it sounds, I've been doing a lot of internet surfing lately, perhaps procrastinating from kanji study, report writing and speech practice..ugh. I stumbled across a digital photography website as I am wanting to start using my NikonD3100 more while I am over here. A blogger on this website has organised a weekly photo challenge where every week there is a technique or theme that you would have to use in your photo somehow. Check it out at Digital Photography School- weekly photo challenge.

I thought this would be a good way of making me take the camera out a little more often and motivate me to take it off auto and play around with the settings a little more. So here goes.

This weeks topic: YOUR BEST FRIEND.

Could be anything, a person, food, laptop etc...I chose little Kenneth. My faithful teddy that is also there for a cuddle when I need it.

My mini aim was to only use natural light.

Was going for the 'sitting and waiting for their return' kinda look;)

^^I think this says it best. Sitting inside on a gloomy rainy day.

Bit of blur in the foreground and background. Do I get any points?

Anyway, that's my first effort. I know it's probably only meant to be one photo but I guess I can do whatever I please (actually I'm just not decisive enough..next time I'll try sticking to one shot!)
