Today in Advanced Portriature


Today in Advanced Portriature we took pictures of animals. I really enjoyed it. I learned a lot, like animals are hard and sometimes they don't want to do what you tell them. But the dog I took pictures of was really good till the end and she was getting tired of getting her picture taken. The pictures came out really good though!!
