My name is Manasa and I was born and raised in the Bay Area. My family was from india and moved here a couple years before I was born. I have two parents and an older brother in my family, as well as a dog. Some of my hobbies include reading, sketching, and volunteering. I often read in my free time, whether it be on vacation or just on the weekends. I usually carry books with me wherever I go, either an actual one or an ebook. I also draw in my free time. I draw either anything that I see that I think would look good on paper or just doodling characters from movies and TV shows. I volunteer at a local animal shelter and enjoy spending time with the canines there. One day I hope to specialize in something in the medical field, preferably cardiology.
I definitely learned a lot from this class. I learned how to properly compose photographs and improve my day to day pictures to make them seem a lot more professional. I have definitely seen a wide range of improvement in comparing my pictures before this class and after. Often when I look to draw something, I take a picture of it (especially if it is of a landscape) so that I can refer to and draw it later. Thus, it is vital that I take a proper picture and properly compose the scene in my camera before snapping the shot, because I can't go back and change it later. Digital photography definitely benefited me quite a bit and taught me several things I have never known before.
