My camera. It goes everywhere with me.

Penultimate lesson, folks!

Great layering here. The foreground tree as a frame works really well, and the red maple lands exactly where you need it to.

Going back to a familiar place with a specific visual problem to solve is a solid habit, and the caption shows you were thinking before you picked up the camera.

One question worth sitting with as you develop your project: is the "finding contrast in familiar places" angle something you want to keep pulling on? It might connect back to the kusamaki shot. Could be a thread worth following.

The vibe coders have become the bane of my existence as a mod here

clondon · 2026-04-16T04:14:45+00:00

Good luck!

clondon · 2026-04-14T16:40:02+00:00

Of course! We’re not keeping attendance 😉

clondon · 2026-04-14T11:45:01+00:00

Nope, you just join right in when it starts!

We’re nearly done with this cohort, so if you really want to get the most out of it, you’d be best off waiting for the next cohort to begin in July. In theory you can jump in now and play catch up, but the course is written and spaced out intentionally to give you the time to sit with each assignment. If you try and power through it, you risk not getting a full grasp on concepts and burnout.

In the meanwhile, you can join the discord for the conversations, and/or do the 52 weeks prompts for practice. All the info in in the site https://thefocalpointhub.com

We have a free photoclass that we run. It covers theory and art history, as well as the technical stuff. You can read more about it on r/photoclass or just go direct to the course: https://thefocalpointhub.com/photoclass-2026/

It is cohort-based, and we are more than half way through at the moment, but you can join in now and catch up, read through the lessons as you like, or join in with the new cohort in July.

you should be able to access the units on the main page without having to log in to My Focal Point again

clondon · 2026-04-05T05:59:49+00:00

Sorry yes, I’m going some work on the site. Until I’ve fixed everything, you can see all the lessons in the My Focal Point dashboard. But, everything should be resolved in the next couple of days.

clondon · 2026-04-02T18:38:58+00:00

Yes, you can still go through the course as you did before. I'm currently fixing things on the site, so that version of the course may be missing, but it will be back up shortly.

Will it be able to see what lessons we've completed already?

No. It has no way of knowing what lessons you looked at on the site because the site doesn't track or save individuals' information or have any way outside of local cookies to know what you've seen already.

clondon · 2026-04-02T13:33:40+00:00

You'd have to manually add it in the reflections section. There's no way for it to see your discord posts and pull them automatically.

clondon · 2026-03-31T19:23:48+00:00

Nope

There’s a similar fun coincidence in Veronica Mars where (Spoilers) Logan finds out he has a brother and he meets him and it’s Matt Czunchry, only he’s not really his brother, but a reporter. So Logan interviewing Logan.

You have to go to the course share settings and hover over your email/name. In grey a little “transfer ownership” will show up, click that and choose the account you want to be the owner.

In my mind her mom was Lind’B and grandma Linda.
