Happy first birthday to my WordPress photojournalism blog! As of right now, I have 18154 views and 185 posts!
Last November, I was enrolled in Dr. Cline’s JRN378 multimedia class which compiles multimedia every week to post onto Ozarks News Journal. I instantly became addicted to blogging.
Because I try to force myself to post as much of my work’s assignments on here as possible, blogging has helped me to shoot better in the field. A good blog post, photojournalistically, includes images that convey a beginning, middle and end with varying angles, focal lengths and emotion. No longer do I only shoot the action and leave after the first half of a game. Blogging allows me to push myself–whether that means moving around more, getting to the assignment earlier and staying later, or just seeing better.
A big thank you to all my friends, family and followers for viewing my work and providing critiques. You all have made me a better shooter and person.
