Are you following me on twitter? Here are some of the highlights of the week! My #ds106 blog title generator. And a photo of a kitty. Because everyone loves kitties. #tdc1717 @ds106dc "The Evolution of Ds106s" It began with week one.Moved to week 2.Got easier with week 3.Now is at week 4. pic.twitter.com/R98I0PyhTh — Amber (@amberrlynn0810) ...

This week has been fun. I love taking photos but never really put as much thought into it.I chose to do 3 visual assignments that were a little bit more than the 8 star requirement. One of my visual assignments involved something I love.. one of my dogs. I uploaded one of my favorite “selfies” ...

For this assignment I had to post a “selfie” with one of my pets. This was difficult for me because I have 2 dogs, 2 kittens, 2 birds, and a horse! Deciding who to pick and selfie with was almost next to impossible! For this photo, I chose Kasey. She’s always my snuggle bunny when ...

Can you take the photoblitz challenge? 20 minutes to take 7 randomized photos. Repeating patterns are everywhere!  What’s better than a red apple?! Sometimes you need a little boundary when jumping to the sky!  Focusing all the time is hard, take a break and see what’s right in front of you!  Take time to look ...

For this part of the weeks assignment we were supposed to find photos that show the different points from  Becoming Better Photographers and analyze them. Selection: I chose this image of a farm in front of the mountains. My dream is to have a functioning horse rescue farm and I love the mountains. The photographer of this ...

I’m finally getting better at this thing called Twitter. September 11th will never get easier for us as a country. What I experienced as a child will be merely taught as a history lesson to today’s children.. #tdc1708 @ds106dc forever we remember. ❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/Hbv2NxFyda — Amber (@amberrlynn0810) September 12, 2016 What would you choose as ...

I don’t have much “professional” experience with photography at all. I mainly take photos of whatever is around me that I think looks good or cool. I try to make sure that there is good lighting and good positioning in the photo. By positioning I mean whatever I am taking a photo of and also the ...

For this assignment I had to make a poster warning everyone about a danger. For this I chose to make a poster warning everyone about Bigfoot! What would you choose to warn everyone about?

This visual assignment was a lot harder than I thought it would be. I had to find something and take a close up photo of it for you to figure out what it is! I chose to blur my photo out and make it a little bit more challenging to really get you thinking. I ...

This week was a lot easier than last. I have learned so much more about the internet then I knew last week. Do you know how to make a GIF? That was probably the coolest assignment EVER! For the most part this week, I followed a common theme on twitter: COFFEE! @ds106dc Domain of my ...

Dear mom, Words cannot express how big of an impact you’ve had on my life and as I sit here writing this letter to you, I cannot help but get teary eyed thinking back to all our memories, good or bad. You have endured more things in your life and managed to end up stronger ...

Back story: Summer Sails has been teaching Preschool classes at her local daycare for about 3 years now. Before landing this job she bounced back and forth between several retail jobs. She has a knack for being around people and is great at customer service! She was top of her class and had her CDA upon ...

“A Logic Named Joe: The 1946 sci-fi short that nailed modern tech” was an interesting read to say the least. Murray Leinster created something called “logic” which I relate with the internet today. The machine “Joe” was created to help people in their homes with their everyday lives and provide entertainment at the same time. It ...

If you haven’t gathered it by now, I love my dog. Her name is Bailey and she’s the worlds greatest snow bunny. So for the assignment “Animals Doing Funny Things” I figured what a better opportunity than making a GIF of Bay playing in the snow. It’ll warm your heart and make you chilled from ...

I found Bryan Alexander’s “Web 2.0 Storytelling” to be very interesting to read. There are points made in this article that you don’t really think about and it opens your eyes. One of my favorite parts of the article was seeing bloggers referred to as the story’s characters. When you’re writing a blog, you’re telling your ...

This week wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. I started by creating a domain and getting my site set up. If that sounds hard to you, it wasn’t. Luckily I had some good instructions to read. Then finding out that I had to use wordpress instead of the original domain just stumped ...

“A Domain of One’s Own in a Post-Ownership Society” was interesting to read. You never really think about not owing something you put so much time and effort into. When you post something online you feel like because they are your words and your thoughts that they are yours. But little do we all know, ...

Hypothesis was an interesting program to work with. I never knew that something existed where you highlight and write thoughts to be shared on a social media platform almost instantly in the way that hypothesis did. I found it very interesting seeing what others chose as I read and was able to see their outlook ...

Sometimes life can be a crazy roller coaster. So far, I’ve learned to hold on tight. My advice to you: hold on tight for the ride. The future: Random fact for my #ds106 classmates: I wanted to be a math teacher and now I'm going for ABA therapy. 😬 — Amber (@amberrlynn0810) September 2, 2016 ...
