Summer Classes and Challenges

June 26, 2013 by Barb 14 Comments

I’m taking part in several classes and photography challenges this summer. I can’t believe that July is only a few days away… where did May and June go?

I wanted to get everything straight in my head, so I thought I would share my schedule with you (in order of appearance)…

The Phone Photography Project at Big Picture Classes starts on July 1st and runs until August 1st. It looks like a ton of fun! Lots of yummy new apps to try!

Nurture Photography, Summer 2013 is a Photography Challenge from Kristi of Live and Love Out Loud, and Rebecca from Bumbles and Light. It starts July 5th and runs until August 2nd. I find this one a bit challenging, so I’m hoping I can keep up.

From Start to Finish at Kim Klassen dot com. It starts on July 9th, and runs for 8 weeks. I don’t have to say anything to you about Kim… we all know how talented, creative, and generous she is.

The Art of Blending at Digital Scrapper, taught by Linda Sattgast starts July 10th and runs for 10 weeks.

Linda Sattgast has the most straightforward, precise, and friendly teaching style I’ve ever come across, and you always get good value for your money at Digital Scrapper:

All class materials (videos, manuals, textures, etc.) are downloadable. View the videos on any computer, tablet, or cell phone that has internet. You have “Forever Access” to the classroom materials, so no need to worry about a computer crash or accidentally losing something. You’ll have personal access to Linda Sattgast, Adobe’s Scrapbooking Expert, in the class Gallery and Forum for the 10 weeks of class, so go ahead—ask her any questions you want about blending! The class Forum and Gallery will be available for posting during the 10 weeks of class, and available for viewing (but not posting) after the class ends.

Whew! So there you have it!

I wonder if I’m going to be able to keep up… the lake beckons…

    You are going to have a busy but fun summer it looks like. All your images are different but sure are quite nice in all the different ways of editing.

    I see you are chewing on a big mouthful. I intended to ake the summer off from classes and I guess I’ll be seeing you in class too. I’m fighting the temptation to take Linda’s. I’m sure I’d learn something new. And it’s soooo my style. I’m also ordering a new computer today and will need to get it all set up. Oh dear, what’s a women to do? Go take a dip…..

    Wow, that’s quite a schedule! I’ll also participate in Kim’s class and also Big Picture’s Phone Photography Project – I must admit that I don’t know how to handle that, but I couldn’t resist ;-)
    Wonderful selection of photos, by the way.

    What a fun summer you are in for. I keep debating about the iphonography class and now I am considering the blending class. So many classes, so little time!!

    Why not reach for the sky? You have a lovely collection of photographs here and I’m sure will make many more as the summer proceeds. I have a long list of self-assigned image projects to take on but I think I will take a break from e-courses for the next while and assimilate all that I have learned since January!
