Hi Alan,
Just a quick word to let you know that at last I’m learning about computer graphics! As you know, I took up
photography three years ago, but the computer had never been my thing (I had to ask my brother to transfer my
photos from the camera to my laptop!). Until last month, that is. At first I wanted to take a computer course, and
although the price wasn’t bad, the hours were impossible. I got lucky, though, because through my friend I met a boy
called David from our school who’s really good at working with graphic programs and he agreed to teach me. I’ve
already learnt some basic stuff, like copying, deleting and organising my photos into albums. Now I’m learning to use
an application that allows me to improve the photos (or retouch them). I’ve started with portraits now and it’s
amazing how much I can do with a face on the screen!
Write back,
Chris
