I want to talk about a course that impressed me a lot because it gives me a fascinating experience. I took photography course that last two years I have always been interested in photography and I like taking pictures with my smartphone and camera. My brother got me a DSLR camera on my birthday. I have used a point and shoot camera before but never used a DSLR camera. It had so many features and a big lens and at first it looked very daunting. I started to take pictures in auto mode but was not able to understand the manual setting. My brother advised me to take a digital photography course to get started ever since the pandemic. The number of online courses has increased globally. I bought a photography masterclass on Udime. It had a lot of good reviews and was recommended by the many students. This course had over 25 hours videos and everything was explained thoroughly. The teachers were very knowledgeable and they started from the basics. I learned about the different types of photography and different sceneries like landscape, family, photograph and wildlife etc. It helped me understand the importance of lighting in photography. It was very comprehensive and easy to follow. I was very impressed with the kind of pictures I was taking with the camera.
