Beginning September 5, 2011, I'll be taking a photo a day for an entire year, in hopes of honing my photography skills and broadening my creativity. If I'm away from home I may not be able to actually post every day, but I will definitely take a photo daily and post as soon as I can. Feedback and constructive criticism are always appreciated. Be forewarned: most of these pictures will probably be of my cats or food... that's just how I roll.

Day 3 - Sunset
Tonight I went with my awesome photo guru Brian to take pictures of the sunset at the beach near my house. Things I learned:
1. How to actually use my manual focus (although shooting in low light still made focusing very difficult)
2. Shooting directly at the sun is bad for my camera lens (in retrospect this is kind of a "durr" thing)
3. When I'm taking a picture of the horizon and I think I'm holding the camera level and straight, I am emphatically not.
