Hooray for Black and White Pics!
I love to take pictures! That’s one thing I’m notorious for 
Still scenes, candids, portraits and anything else I want to capture. One technique I have always enjoyed is developing memorable moments in black and white. I posted some helpful tips and tricks for creating beautiful pictures–in black and white:
1. Focus on contrast.
2. Emphasize texture.
3. Capture image in color.
4. Find interest in everyday objects and scenes around you (what might appear to be a boring shot in color can become fascinating when captured in black and white).
5. Black and white adds emotion and drama to portraits.
6. When in doubt, take the shot anyway! You never know how it will turn out in black and white.
7. Consider capturing architecture and landscapes.
8. Take your camera with you wherever you go; you never know what photo opportunities will exist.
9. Experiment shooting daytime photos in black and white for greater impact.
10. Practice, practice, PRACTICE!

All of the Above
Social Historian and educator, Daniel J. Boorstin said in 1914 “Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some hire PR officers.”
Sitting in class one day, I stumbled upon this interesting quote that popped up in my search for PR-related topics. After getting over my initial reaction of feeling insulted and offended, I read the quote again and began to think about all of my accomplishments.
Ever since I was younger and I made my first visit to the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, any career opportunity I have ever considered has centered around ultimately working for the Disney Company.
During my college tenure, I have, as most students do, changed my major at least three times, never once retreating from my dream. When I finally realized that I wanted to practice Public Relations, once again, the ideal position was realized as well. My ultimate professional career objective is to work as Disney’s corporate director of public relations.
In identifying my goal, the last three years as a Georgia Southern University student have been devoted to accomplishing that goal. A strenuous academic undergraduate program, valuable leadership opportunities, and involvement in various campus organizations, complimented with exellent writing and interpersonal skills and my inate ability to lead others, have equipped me with the tools to be successful in my career field.
I am extremely fortunate to have had the opportunities in my life, and am excited about what I have to offer. In regards to Boorstin’s quote, I have realized–I was born great, I have and will achieve greatness, and will be hired (by Disney) as a “PR officer”–I am all of the above.
